Sabres comeback falls short after second-period collapse in Toronto

‘”I think we have to realize they’re going to have pushes,” said Reinhart. “They have some of the best players in the world over there. We need to find a way to calm down and be composed when they do have those pushes. Try to stop the momentum as quick as possible.”‘

Unexpected trade motivates new Sabres defenseman Brandon Montour

‘”Nobody wants to get traded,” Montour, who is expected to make his Sabres debut Tuesday in Philadelphia, said in Scotiabank Arena. “Obviously sad to leave friends. I was drafted there. … It’s one of those things where I want to prove them wrong. I wanted to stay there for a long time, but it didn’t happen. This is home now.”‘

Mike Harrington: Botterill crosses key line at right time for Sabres’ growth

‘Montour checks every box for the Sabres. He’s a right-shot defenseman. He’s young (24), relatively cheap (cap hit of about $3.4 million), under contract for next season and only a restricted free agent after that.’

Sabres Notebook: Kyle Okposo returns to lineup after suffering concussion

‘”A little bit,” Okposo said when asked if he feared for his condition. “I think there’s a psychological component, too. You get hit and I obviously know my history better than anybody. There’s definitely that component of, ‘Am I OK?’ … You just have to find a balance. You have to be in tune with your body and your mind. Be really honest with yourself and how you feel. I feel great now.”‘

The Wraparound: Maple Leafs 5, Sabres 3

‘The Sabres allowed four second-period goals, including three in a span of two minutes, four seconds, and their comeback fell short in a 5-3 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.’

Sabres hope adding established player in Brandon Montour buoys them

‘“It shows they believe in this group,” Sabres center Evan Rodrigues said prior to Monday’s 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs, a game Montour sat out after traveling. “I think we have a big belief in here and obviously adding someone like that is going to make us more dynamic, especially offensively.”’

Sabres notes: Trade puts chip on Brandon Montour’s shoulder

‘“It’s one of those things where I want to prove them wrong,” Montour said prior to Monday’s 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs. “I wanted to stay there for a long time. I guess this is home now.”’

Maple Leafs’ 4-goal 2nd period sinks Sabres 5-3

‘“We had like seven or eight minutes of bad hockey where we let them get behind us, and that was it,” Eichel said. “They had too many odd-man rushes in the second period, and it cost us the game.”’
