Iron Crotch Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 The all rookie pairing of McCabe and Rudy scares the crap out of me... but we already clinched dead last in the standings, so I guess it doesn't really matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) @BuffaloSabres Morning skate line rushes:Conacher-Ennis-Leino. Hodgson-Girgensons-D'Agostini. Adam-Larsson-Deslauriers. Scott-Flynn-Ellis. Defensive pairings: Ehrhoff/Ristolainen. McCabe/Ruhwedel. McBain rotating in since Weber is not skating this morning. #sabres -CR Foligno and Stewart did not partake in line rushes. They're participating in the other drills though. #sabres -@ChrisRyndak Looks like Nathan Lieuwen will start tonight against the Flyers. #sabres -@ChrisRyndak Edited April 6, 2014 by 26CornerBlitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawndo Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 How the F is that possible?? His leg looked like it just about snapped off the other night. Surprised me as well. I was worried about him making it back for training camp in September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) Surprised me as well. I was worried about him making it back for training camp in September. In Nolan's presser the next day, he said Foligno was walking around pretty well and it wasn't as bad as they 1st thought.

26CornerBlitz Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) @BuffaloSabres Nolan says that Foligno and Stewart could both possibly play Tuesday night against Detroit. #sabres -@ChrisRyndak Drew Stafford could also play Tuesday but Henrik Tallinder will likely miss more time, according to Ted Nolan. #sabres -@ChrisRyndak Nolan says Tyler Myers could return before the end of the season but Enroth and Neuvirth are likely done for the year. #sabres -@ChrisRyndak Mike Weber will play tonight even though he didn't skate this morning. Nolan confirms Nathan Lieuwen will start. #sabres -@ChrisRyndak Edited April 6, 2014 by 26CornerBlitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawndo Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) Neuvirth and Enroth done for the year according to Nolan. Or out at least one more week depending on your way of thinking. Edited April 6, 2014 by BRAWNDO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickie Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 How the F is that possible?? His leg looked like it just about snapped off the other night. I got the impression he may have just strained some ligaments from the video. Hurts like hell, but not always a long term injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
