Sabres Notebook: Nylander, Porter recalled from Rochester

‘After an injury sidelined Nylander for training camp and the first month of the season, the former first-round pick found his groove with the Amerks. His point production has picked up lately, including eight points (two goals, six assists) in his last eight games.’

What’s next for Buffalo’s aging KeyBank Center?

‘Approaching 22 years old, it’s in middle age in arena years and has fallen behind the other facilities constructed during the NHL’s building boom in the 1990s. Virtually all 17 of those venues have undergone major renovation projects in recent years or are about to. Just last month, a $250 million renovation was announced for Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. The home of the NHL’s Flyers and NBA’s 76ers opened in August 1996 – one month before KeyBank Center.’

A look at what’s been done at other hockey arenas

‘Bell Centre, Montreal (1996) – Ongoing $100 renovation project for replacement of all seats, upgrades to concourses, addition of restaurants, conversion of Avenue des Canadiens-de-Montréal into pedestrian-only street.’

Nylander, Porter earn late-season call-ups to parent Sabres

‘Porter is third in scoring for the Amerks this season with 16 goals and 24 assists for 40 points in 64 games. The Detroit native has appeared in 249 NHL games and has scored 29 goals to go with 29 assists at the top level.’

Jason Pominville strong veteran voice for struggling Sabres

‘“He’s not going to be the loudmouth of the room,” Sabres winger Scott Wilson said last week. “He’s just one of those guys when he talks, everybody shuts up and listens. It’s been great for me having him around.”’

Sabres recall Alexander Nylander, Kevin Porter from Amerks

‘Nylander, 20, played four NHL games last season. Following a slow start this year, the Swede has caught fire, compiling five goals and 16 points in his last 20 outings.’

Mittelstadt signs with NHL’s Buffalo Sabres

‘Buffalo, with the worst record in the NHL, will not qualify for the playoffs for a seventh consecutive season. Mittelstadt and Company hope to change that next year.’

Sabres recall Nylander, Porter from AHL’s Rochester Americans

‘Both Nylander and Porter are expected to be sent back to the Americans prior to the start of the Calder Cup playoffs.’

Sabres call up a pair from Rochester

‘Nylander got off to a rough start to the 2017-18 season in Rochester after returning from a lower-body injury during the Sabres Prospects Challenge in September. After just two goals and four assists in the first 15 games of the season, Nylander was loaned to the Swedish National Hockey team for the IIHF World Junior Championship in Buffalo. He scored a goal and added six assists for the Swedes, but ended up capturing the silver medal after losing out to Canada for the gold.’
