Sabres’ Jacob Bryson becoming trusted defenseman beside Rasmus Ristolainen

‘“He wants his guys always in motion, layers on the puck,” Bryson said of Granato. “So it makes it easier for all of us defensemen as far as gapping goes or breaking pucks out, guys are always in the right areas. When we’re gapping up, he wants us to circle up a lot. It makes it a lot easier for the forwards to come back. It’s been a lot easier for us, too.”’
