Rasmus Dahlin finding his groove on both sides of puck for Sabres

‘”A lot better. I’m not thinking,” he said. “I just go out there and play. You want to do everything to not get scored on, and not really focus on the offensive side. We’ve been playing a little better but I’ve been really confident.”‘

Sabres may get Victor Olofsson, Kyle Okposo back in the lineup Thursday night

‘”I didn’t really know what to expect,” Olofsson said. “I haven’t been through one of these things before so I’m just trying to be really patient. Tomorrow is six weeks so that’s kind of where we thought it would be. I feel like there’s been good progress and we’re where we want to be at.”‘

Carter Hutton stunned by collapse of former Blues teammate Jay Bouwmeester

‘”As a friend too, he’s just the ultimate pro,” said Hutton, who played two seasons with the Blues from 2016-18. “He takes unbelievable care of himself and obviously that shows. You see the guy getting the Cup first and that’s kind of the ultimate respect in hockey.”‘

Sabres need to trade Rasmus Ristolainen before it’s too late

‘It’s not working in Buffalo, and getting assets for a player who is having no impact on your team’s performance is always worth consideration.’

Colin Miller finally adjusting to Sabres, earning more playing time

‘“When you’re in and out of the lineup and all that, it can be hard to kind of find that consistency,” Miller said following Wednesday’s practice inside KeyBank Center. “I don’t think that’s an excuse. You still got to play well and play your game. But I think it’s definitely easier when you have those reps kind of back-to-back-to-back and you’re not missing them.’

Sabres’ Victor Olofsson, Kyle Okposo could return from injuries Thursday

‘Olofsson quickly morphed into one of the NHL’s top rookies, scoring six goals in the first seven games and establishing himself as a Calder Trophy candidate. Overall, he has compiled 16 goals and 35 points in 42 outings.’

Pilut is working his way to earning more ice time

‘”I’m just staying ready. I’m staying ready mentally and keeping my body in shape,” Pilut said following practice on Wednesday. “Working on the small details such as handling guys and [defensive] zone work. I think if I just keep working on that every day, keep working hard and just waiting for the chance to come, I’ll be ready for it.”“I’m just staying ready.

Krueger: Skinner is ‘getting opportunity and he’s trying’

‘”We wake up every morning here growing the team, and we wake up every morning here doing what’s best for the team,” Krueger said on the Howard and Jeremy Show during his weekly Wednesday visit on WGR. “We base our decisions on the mixes, the chemistry and the lineup that we think is the strongest for the Buffalo Sabres. That’s the way we work and that’s the way we’re going to continue to work. When Jack is playing up against the top lines and top [defensive] pairs of the other teams, we need other lines to be able to produce against the second and third pairs of the opposition.’

Olofsson, Okposo could return Thursday

‘”Victor Olofsson and Kyle Okposo both showed good signs here today,” Krueger said. “We’re going to assess post-practice and take a final look in the morning, but it looks like they’re an option already for tomorrow. But we’ll make that final call, again, tomorrow.”‘
