Nine players who could help the Sabres fill the void at second-line center

‘Adams will need to look outside for help. Barring an unexpected blockbuster, there don’t appear to be any elite centers available – most teams choose to hold onto talented players at that position – but several options could fit the Sabres’ needs.’

Sabres reportedly loan forward Rasmus Asplund to team in Sweden

‘HockeyNews.Se, a website based in Sweden, reported Friday that the Sabres have loaned forward Rasmus Asplund to Vasteras of HockeyAllsvenskan, the country’s second-tier professional league. Asplund, 22, totaled one goal with two assists and a minus-4 rating in 29 games with Buffalo this season. He will be allowed to return to Buffalo when NHL training camps are tentatively scheduled to open in November.’

‘The Sabres also recently loaned goalie prospect Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to HC TPS, a Finnish Elite League team, and center Arttu Ruotsalainen, to Ilves Tampere, another Finnish League club.’

Report: Sabres to loan Rasmus Asplund to Västerås IK in Sweden

‘The 22-year-old is about to play his third season in North America with the Sabres organization since being drafted in the second round (33rd overall) in the 2016 NHL Draft. In two years playing mostly with the Rochester Americans in the American Hockey League, Asplund has scored a total of 13 goals and 47 assists for 60 points in 108 games played.’

Sabres notes: Kevyn Adams reached out to Jack Eichel shortly after hiring

‘“But I think from my standpoint, he is our franchise player, he is our captain, and it’s really important he understands what we’re trying to do here,” Adams said. “Obviously, has a great relationship with (coach Ralph Krueger), and now it’s time for me to build that as well.”‘

Sabres mailbag: Is there pressure on new GM Kevyn Adams to win now?

‘The Sabres are going to spend less money next season. Many teams will because it’s unclear if fans will be able to attend games. But the bigger challenge to hiring experienced executives is the perceived lack of stability within the organization. Adams would need to sell those people on his vision — not an easy task after all the turnover since the Pegulas bought the team in 2011.’

The quiet superstar: Sabres remember Dale Hawerchuk for humility, greatness

‘“He just never had a bad day, always happy, even-keeled and a guy that you would look to,” former Sabres goalie Clint Malarchuk said. “All of a sudden, you’re following this guy. It wasn’t anything he said. It was everything he did.”’
