Linus Ullmark among few bright spots in Sabres’ preseason loss

‘The Buffalo Sabres showed no signs of the up-tempo attack that the other half of his roster used to mount a three-goal lead against Pittsburgh one night earlier. The second preseason game was filled with poor forechecking, disorganized play in the defensive zone and included few quality scoring chances.’

Sabres relieved there will be no lockout next year, hope spirit of negotiation continues

‘”It’s good to know and good to let our fans know, tell the people who follow the game of hockey there’s not going to be a work stoppage next year,” Sabres captain Jack Eichel said Tuesday in KeyBank Center. “It’s good for the game, good for revenue. We had a couple good talks with the PA and the executive board. A lot of guys had opinions and it’s important they’re all brought forward.”‘

Sabres veteran Kyle Okposo refreshed following rough season

‘Instead of returning to Minnesota following the season, Okposo and his family stayed in Clarence and enjoyed their first full summer in the Buffalo area. He likes new coach Ralph Krueger, someone he said “has a very clear, concise plan.”’

Sabres prospect Matej Pekar thrilled to earn spot in NHL exhibition game

‘“Just the energy he’s shown in the development and rookie camp,” Sabres coach Ralph Krueger said of what earned Pekar an opportunity. “I mean, it was fun for me to see him in action.”‘

Sabres suffer first preseason loss to Blue Jackets, 4-1

‘With 6:17 to play in the middle stanza, Jake McCabe got the Sabres on the scoreboard with his first goal of the preseason. His shot from the high slot beat Kivlenieks and the game was evened at a goal apiece courtesy of the defenseman’s tally.’

One bad preseason game doesn’t make or break a player

‘None of the youngsters made a statement in this game, but many will get more chances. The team has Wednesday off and lines will be different when they return on Thursday.’

Sabres fall to Blue Jackets 4-1

‘Jake McCabe scored the Sabres lone goal on a shot from the point in the second period that briefly tied the game. Rasmus Asplund picked up the lone assist on the play.’

‘Jack Eichel, Jeff Skinner, and Rasmus Dahlin were among the Sabres players who did not play.’

Sabres look to build on positives after preseason loss in Columbus

‘”We’ll look for things that confirm what we want to do to get that into the players’ minds, but individually, we’ll be looking at a lot of lessons that we’ve seen here,” Krueger said. “It’s also been excellent for us to evaluate. You get to know the players so much better than in practice [when you’re] standing behind the bench for those two games. We will be spending a day evaluating and then on Thursday, you’ll be seeing some new looks for sure.”‘
