Jason Karmanos says Sabres have to be patient, do better job projecting in draft

‘”Projection is key. It’s not a race to see who gets there first,” Karmanos said Thursday during a news conference in the KeyBank Center pavilion. “It’s very much a marathon for these kids to have a career. And a successful career and being a part of a winning organization is the goal.”‘

History shows patience, support necessary if Sabres select Owen Power at No. 1

‘Power has expressed interest in returning to the University of Michigan for his sophomore season, a scenario that would make him only the second player since 2000 to willingly not make an immediate jump to the NHL. Waiting for another defenseman to develop is a tough sell to Sabres fans, who have suffered through 10 seasons without playoff hockey and likely will watch their franchise center, Jack Eichel, depart this summer. History shows, though, that patience is important when selecting a player on defense, particularly when the prospect is stepping into a situation like the one in Buffalo.’

Sabres open season Oct. 14 vs. Habs as part of four-game homestand

‘The two division games were taken away to accommodate games against the Kraken. The Nov. 4 trip to Seattle will be the Kraken’s fifth home game. Seattle will play in Buffalo on Nov. 29.’

‘The NHL draft begins Friday night. The Buffalo Sabres have the No. 1 overall pick, as they did in 1970, when they selected Perreault. This draft marks 50 years since the Sabres selected Martin with the fifth overall choice. And then there was Robert, who came not by draft, but by trade.’

2021-22 Sabres schedule features early home stand, games against Kraken

‘The Sabres have a 24-day break and only three games scheduled in February because NHL could renew its Olympic participation and send players to the Beijing Games. If the NHL and the NHL Players’ Association can’t reach an agreement, a revised schedule will be released.’

As offseason ramps up for NHL Draft, Sabres could start making trades

‘The chances of the Sabres fetching an equal return in exchange for Eichel are slim.’

‘“I loved my time (in Rochester),” Borgen said. “From the players to the staff, everybody was great. I made a lot of lifelong friends that I played with for two or three years. I loved it out there. I was in Buffalo for a year and they gave me my first NHL game. That meant a lot to me, obviously. The Buffalo, Rochester area will always be special to me.”’

‘“This is a tough league. So I think the one mistake we don’t want to make is putting someone in position that they’re just treading water,” Adams said. “We want them to be ready to play.”’

Sabres are ready for NHL Draft

‘They don’t have their own pick in the third round, because they traded it to the New York Rangers for Jimmy Vesey. The Sabres do have two picks in the third round. They have the Florida Panthers’ pick that they got for Brandon Montour, as well as the Montreal Canadiens’ pick for Eric Staal.’

With NHL transaction freeze over, Kevyn Adams is free to make deals again

‘“We’re not focused on that saying we have to do this, but if it’s the right deal that we think makes sense for us as we look to build around a young core of players, then we would do it. But it has to be the right thing for us,” said the Buffalo general manager. “It’s not something where we’re just going to do it. We have to be able to look at each other in the eye and say this is the best thing for the Buffalo Sabres.”’
