[Tyler Ennis: Better Than Ever]

Ennis will fit nicely on Buffalo's contending team as the second line RW with Reinhart while McDavid/Eichel center the top line.

[23-man roster predictions for 2015-16 season]

I was wondering when Dubnyk's name would start to surface.  I don't want to be the team that buys into him based off of his current hot streak.  He has consistently been bad for several years now.  I would stay far away from him.  Thankfully, it'll probably be one of those cases where it is in the best interest of both the player and the team and he will stick around in Minnesota.

A Dubnyk/Neuvirth tandem would just be a placeholder until the Sabres find their franchise goaltender.

No Reinhart?

Have Reinhart start the year in Rochester and be called up when injuries occur
