Sabres' centers have daunting challenge ahead

'“You don’t want to go chance-for-chance with the teams that we’re playing here,” Bylsma said in KeyBank Center. “You don’t want to go offense-for-offense or run-and-gun. You do have to limit what they get by how you play with the puck. That’s a focus for us in the next two games.”' … [Read more...] about Sabres’ centers have daunting challenge ahead

Report: Sabres' Johan Larsson done for the year

'The bad news -- Larsson is a center, and the Sabres don't have a ton of talent down the middle in Rochester.
