‘This is the first time that Smith and Dea have been called up to the Sabres’ taxi squad this season, as both players have spent the past couple of weeks preparing for the Amerks’ season in Rochester. Smith was in Buffalo to take part in training camp before the 2020-21 season got started, while Dea was placed on waivers just before training camp and he did not take part in the two-week period.’
