Some California dreamin’ gives Sabres first chance at team bonding since the pandemic

‘”Guys were pretty excited to have a little bit of normalcy and go on the road and go out to dinner and just hang out,” Okposo said. “That’s a special part about playing in the league that it’s one of those things where you don’t really know what you have until it’s gone. And with the pandemic, it was gone for 18 months.”‘

Olofsson’s hard work has led to team-high production

‘”I feel like ever since I got to North America I’ve been working very hard to get better without the puck, get better defensively,” Olofsson said. “I feel like I’ve been making progress. I also want to be better with the puck and create more chances offensively, so I think I’m on the right track here.”‘

After glimpse of success, Sabres work overtime to improve their 3-on-3 play

‘”It’s fun to not always just have a regular practice,” Olofsson said at the Toyota Sports Center, the Los Angeles Kings’ suburban practice facility. “When we get down to overtime, it’s big to get that extra point and it’s important to practice on it and we had a really good practice.”‘

Eakin practices, not expected to play against Kings

‘”I don’t think Sunday’s an option for him,” Granato told the media. “… It’s still a little process. I don’t expect Sunday. Possible for Tuesday (against San Jose).”‘

Observations: After blowing 3-0 lead, Sabres get Anderson an OT win on Asplund’s goal

‘”He was calm and confident,” added coach Don Granato. “He read the shooters and the situations moments before they were transpiring. He was key. And I think our guys rallied around that.”‘

Sabres notebook: Cody Eakin back at practice, closing in on return

‘”I was happily surprised with Cody today, he looked way better (than expected),” coach Don Granato said. “I didn’t go into it with much expectation. I thought he would stay out of anything close to a contact situation. He just wouldn’t. He jumped right in. So he is definitely feeling better. But no timetable yet.”‘

As Jack Eichel turns 25, the former Sabres captain still awaits a resolution

‘Five years remain on Eichel’s contract that carries a $10 million annual cap hit. His no-movement clause begins in July, which would allow Eichel to nix any trade. Sabres General Manager Kevyn Adams is valuing Eichel as a healthy, elite centerman with a track record that includes five seasons of 20 goals and three appearances in the NHL All-Star game.’
