Eichel has some suggestions as Sabres take their parents to Boston

‘”It’s a lot of fun. I wouldn’t say it’s as sweet because he’s just going home,” Eichel said. “But I think any time we get to spend together it’s fun. It’s nice that it’s in Boston because I’ll have more people at the game than just my dad. It’s enjoyable. Obviously I know the area well, so if anyone needs anything, let me know.”‘

Bucky Gleason: Slovakian Olympic coach Craig Ramsay is never too far from Buffalo

‘Thirty-three years have passed since he played his last game for the Sabres, but Buffalo fans still remember Rammer.’

Winter Classic helped Sabres’ Sam Reinhart bust long slump

‘The past month has arguably been the best stretch of Reinhart’s three-year NHL career. After scoring the late winner Thursday, his third point in a 4-3 win over the New York Islanders, he has compiled four goals and 13 points in the last 10 contests, including five points in the last two games.’

How do the Sabres use analytics?

‘Botterill thinks it’s extremely important to integrate both analytics and the eye test in player evaluation. He thinks you need scouts and analytics to make the best decisions for your team. “I don’t want to say specifically what we use as I’ll keep that internal, but it’s important to respect both sides, Botterill said. “We want to hear both sides, we want to hear what our scouts have to say and what they see and we want to hear the numbers that can give us an edge in evaluating players.”’

Dreger: “Rick Nash might complicate things for the Sabres”

‘If that’s the asking price for Rick Nash, Kane would be a more attractive trade piece. Kane and Nash both have 16 goals this season, but Kane has 10 more assists, and is 7 years younger. Not to mention that Nash has a $7.8 million cap hit this year, and Kane’s is just $5.25 million. Another advantage for the Sabres is Kane’s lack of a no movement clause. The Sabres can trade Kane to any of the other 30 teams. The Rangers can’t, as previously mentioned. Both players will be free agents at the end of the year.’
