‘Eichel isn’t alone: Many of the team’s experienced forwards are struggling to score, as Ryan O’Reilly has three of Buffalo’s four goals over the last four games. Evander Kane, Brian Gionta, Marcus Foligno and the injured Zemgus Girgensons all have one goal for the season. Tyler Ennis has no goals in nine games, Matt Moulson none in eight. Johan Larsson and David Legwand have yet to score at all.’

What to watch Monday night: Bills or Sabres?
‘“We can’t show the Bills game in the building – it’s against league rules – but we’ll have updates,” Gilbert said. “I think nowadays everybody has a smartphone anyway, so they’re going to get updates.”’
Improved Sabres have long ways to go
‘What’s clear is the Sabres’ also-ran days are over under new coach Dan Bylsma. Even in their losses they’re usually competitive. Sure, the playoffs probably aren’t realistic this season. But they’ve shown enough progress and possess enough talent to make fans wonder what kind of team they might develop into in the near future.’
