Great job, as usual, 26CB.

 

For the lineups do just stick in names?

 

Just wondering since Rudy was just called up and you have on the first D pairing with The Hoff.

 

Thanks SFNS. It's educated guesses for the line combinations and defense pairings until info is received from trusted sources that see the morning skates and Nolan's pregame presser.

 

@BuffaloSabres

Conacher: It's nice to have family nearby & all the support. Looking forward to his start with the #Sabres.

@BuffaloSabres

.@conhockey19: "I want to play for this team for a long time." He says there's always teams you want to play for; this is it for him #Sabres

 

@BuffaloSabres

Having gone to Canisius, Conacher says he's very familiar with #Sabres, has been to a lot of games. Hopes he fits right in.

 

@BNHarrington

Conacher said he chose 88 sted 89 out of deference to Mogilny -- and that he texted with Kane about taking 88.

@BuffaloSabres

Girgensons, Mitchell, Stewart all out for at least a week, #Sabres Interim Coach Ted Nolan says.

 

Refreshing to hear a player genuinely excited to play in Buffalo, and that sucks about the 3 injuries. Hopefully no more than 1 week for each of them.
