Sabres intent on enjoying their time on Winter Classic stage

‘”Just being able to share the whole experience with my family and friends will be cool,” said Eichel, who has a group of 25 in the Big Apple. “That’s one of the best parts about it probably. The Sabres have done such a great job of giving us so many opportunities to bring so many people here and really make them a part of the event.”‘

Sabres Notebook: Housley has fresh outlook; outdoor experience

‘”It’s great to go in with a win. I’m not going to lie,” Housley said after returning to the Devils’ rink in Newark, N.J., for a brief practice. “The vibe on the team is really good right now, and we’re looking forward to it.”‘

Inside the NHL: Better balance still needed for Winter Classic sites, teams

‘Getting the Sabres back into the game for the second time is nice and staging it in New York City for the first time is also cool. Putting the Chicago Blackhawks into the affair for the fourth time next year and the Boston Bruins into it thrice is not cool.’

10 years later, Winter Classic memories still special for Sabres

‘“Everything kind of happened where it was the perfect scenario: snowy day, (71,000) people there … unbelievable atmosphere,” Sabres winger Jason Pominville said earlier this month. “It was perfect for players, for fans, for TV. Like, everything was perfect.”‘

The Sabres turn their focus to Citi Field

‘“It’s going to be a great experience not only for me and the coaching staff but our players, management and their families, we’re going to take it all in.” Housley added, “It’s all that it’s wrapped up to be, you’re on the number one stage, everybody’s going to be watching and we just want to represent our organization and our fans in the best way possible.”’

Coming off of win in New Jersey, excitement for Winter Classic builds

‘”It’s great to go in with a win, I’m not going to lie. I think the vibe around the team’s really good right now. We’re looking forward to it.”‘
