Observations: Sabres are too passive in getting schooled by Sharks

‘Playing a team missing seven players due to Covid protocol, the Sabres were passive and never grabbed the game in SAP Center. Tomas Hertl had two goals and an assist to lead the San Jose Sharks to a 5-3 win over Buffalo, which has dropped two straight in regulation for the first time this season to fall to 5-3-1.’

Sabres Notebook: Jack Quinn named AHL Rookie of the Month

‘”Work ethic, his daily habits, they’ve always been good,” Amerks coach Seth Appert said on a video call Monday. “It’s taken another notch now. He’s really embracing being a pro, he’s embracing coming to the rink and finding ways to try to get 1, 2, 5% better at different areas of his game on and off the ice every day. So his attention to detail and his habits are extremely high. That usually leads to confidence.”‘

Sabres lose aggression, fall to Sharks; Victor Olofsson close to returning

‘Given their lack of star power, that style has become their bread and butter. If they get away from it, well, losses like Tuesday’s 5-3 setback to the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center will happen.’

‘Laaksonen, 22, has found a groove over the last three games, registering one goal and four points. In Saturday afternoon’s thrilling 6-5 road win against the Laval Rocket, he showcased his slick offensive skills, setting up Jack Quinn’s early power-play goal before converting JJ Peterka’s nifty feed in overtime.’

Hertl scores 2 goals as short-handed Sharks beat Sabres 5-3

‘“The mindset wasn’t right,” Buffalo coach Don Granato said. “We didn’t play aggressive. We didn’t play assertive. That game was right there for the taking. We just didn’t play aggressive.”’

Strong Start Gives Sabres the Option of Patience with Jack Eichel

‘With this start to the year, the Sabres can sit back and wait out any potential Eichel trade partner until they’re satisfied with the return on his services. They can wait right up to the NHL’s trade deadline if need be. The bar has been set so low for Buffalo this year, they can ride out any small storm and still have their fans agree the best move for the franchise is to ship Eichel out as soon as possible – just not at the expense of the quality of the trade.’

Buffalo Prospect Jack Quinn is Red-Hot

‘Scoring was never a problem for Quinn and his ability to put the puck in the net was a big reason why the Sabres selected the Ottawa 67’s star eighth overall in the 2020 draft. When I think back on that season, I always remember a conversation I had with 67’s GM James Boyd right at the beginning of the year: He told me to keep an eye out for Quinn, who had been a depth piece on a loaded roster the prior campaign. Boyd said Quinn would be an NHL first-rounder and sure enough, the kid blasted off into the stratosphere that season, posting 52 goals and 89 points in 62 games for the 67’s.’

Sabres bit by Sharks on Tuesday

‘The Buffalo Sabres dropped their second consecutive game on the west coast, as the blue and gold found themselves on the wrong side of a 5-3 final against the Sharks inside SAP Center in San Jose.’

Opinion: The Sabres lost their competitive edge in a loss to San Jose

‘The Sharks kept the game uncomplicated and simple and pretty much had it in cruise control by the third period.’
