Eichel of Sabres inspires patients via portrait at Buffalo cancer center

‘”When they walk by it to get their blood drawn, they’ll look over and say ‘Wow, that’s really cool,'” Roswell Park physician Dr. Philip McCarthy said. “I mean, these people are fighting to get control of their lives back. And to see their reaction when they see it, it gets their spirits up.”‘

Inside the NHL: Ten years after his death, this will always be Jim Kelley’s space

‘”He had no fear. He had a tremendous amount of knowledge and he wasn’t just a hockey guy,” former Hockey Night in Canada producer John Shannon said by phone Friday from Toronto. “The key thing for all of us, and I say this tongue-in-cheek, was he could speak Canadian but be American. He knew our strengths and weaknesses, never a time you felt he didn’t know what we were all about, but he could still give us an American perspective and that was ever-so-important. He did an outstanding job with that. He was so fair. Those of us that read him on a regular basis always knew that.”‘

Friendship with Colby Cave helped Sabres’ Matt Irwin handle demotion

‘During that chat with the media, Irwin was sporting a No. 12 “Caver” that Cave’s wife, Emily, sent him. He said he wears it almost every day. Irwin’s wife, Chantel, also grew close to Cave and his future wife.’

Sabres Mailbag: Is it time for Rasmus Dahlin to play on the first defense pair?

‘Dahlin is ready to play on the top pairing, preferably with Colin Miller as his partner. Ristolainen would be productive with significantly less ice time – the physicality he brings cannot be overlooked given no other defenseman on this roster plays with that edge – but he’s not suited to face an opponent’s top players.’

Sabres prospect J-J Peterka developing rapidly in Austria

‘“Afterwards, as hard as the first round was for him, he was equally ecstatic with how it played out the next day,” McIlvane said. He added: “He’s still carrying the excitement with him. We’re proud of him.”’

Eichel, Dahlin ranked among NHL’s best players under age 25

‘Both Eichel and Dahlin found themselves ranked as some of the best players in the NHL under the age of 25 on Monday, according to NBC Sports’ Pro Hockey Talk. In their NHL Power Rankings of Top-25 players under the age of 25, Eichel is listed as the seventh-best player on the list, while Dahlin came in ranked 23rd.’

Eichel happy with ‘great moves’ by Sabres in offseason

‘”Whenever you can add people like Taylor Hall and Eric Staal and Cody Eakin to your roster and the locker room, they not only bring talent to the ice but also veteran presence to the locker room,” he said. “In a situation like ours where we’re trying to find a winning culture with a young group and trying to figure out the right way to do things at times, I think having older guys can help you out especially during periods of adversity.’

Jack Eichel on Sabres’ offseason moves: ‘It’s so hard to win when you’re young’

‘“I know the league is trying to go younger, but I think that you still need those older guys, the veteran guys, the guys that have been there and won. I think you need them in your locker room, first of all, and you need them on the ice. We’ve definitely been young. We’ve been in a transition for a few years now. There’s always young guys coming through the organization and you want to see everyone have success, but you look at the transformation that our team made this offseason.”‘

Inside the NHL: Are players, cash-strapped owners heading for an ugly faceoff?

‘We’re approaching the time when a deal better be made in the next seven to 10 days if Jan. 1 is going to stay a target. If you figure a two-week training camp – and three weeks for the Sabres and six other teams that didn’t take part in the Return to Play – players need to start coming back from Europe to serve their quarantines. And the Not So Magnificent Seven clubs need to be on the ice around Dec. 10.’

Datsyuk-style game earning Sabres prospect Matteo Costantini notice

‘“The fifth round came around and Buffalo’s pick showed up,” said Costantini, a center the Sabres drafted 131st overall. “I saw my name pop up on the screen, I was like, ‘This is crazy, right?’ It was an unreal feeling, and I got to share that moment with those guys, and that is something I will remember for the rest of my life.”’
