... Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 (edited) Tonight's Battle on Ice: Buffalo Sabres Face Off Against Anaheim Ducks The Buffalo Sabres are ready to take on the Anaheim Ducks tonight at the Honda Center. Here's your quick guide to the game: Puck Drop: 10:00 PM EST (actually more like 10:07 PM). Watch Live: Tune in via Victory+, MSG-B, KCOP-13, ESPN+ coverage for those out of the Buffalo area, WGR550. Current Standings: Sabres 9-9-1 / Ducks 8-8-2. Sabres Lineup (without Jeff Skinner): Peterka - McLeod - Tuch Benson - Cozens - Lafferty Zucker - Kulich - Quinn Malenstyn - Krebs - Aube-Kubel Players to Watch: Rasmus Dahlin continues to be a key figure for the Sabres, both defensively and in contributing to the scoreboard. JJ Peterka has stepped up his game, aiming to make an impact in Skinner's absence. The Sabres, adapting to life post-Skinner, will need to rely on their depth and emerging talents to challenge the Ducks. With a focus on teamwork and execution, this game is crucial for both teams looking to climb up in their respective conferences. Buffalo needs this game to regain the 8th wildcard slot. Meanwhile, the Ducks are well below the waterline in their division and need this game to stay relevant. Edited November 22 by ... This post brought to you by GROK 1 1 Quote

French Collection Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 UPL with the start, I would think. Interesting to think that Reimer has twice been a Sabre this season but has yet to play a minute but he has played a few games for the Ducks. Lets go Buffalo. Quote

ska-T Chitown Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 ugh. If we are going to lose, can we at least get the loser point??? As "bad" as the Broons have been, we have lost ground to them over the last 10 😢 And I think NHL.com has them ahead of us due to alphabetical order? Quote
Sabres73 Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 No, simply because the Bruins have two more points, despite us having games at hand 1 Quote
#freejame Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 This is almost certainly a win with my bedtime. Get these next two (convincingly) and everyone will be on the hype train. Quote

DarthEbriate Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 Still no power at the homestead, so I’m almost certain to miss this one, too. I’ll check the score a couple times, though, and hope they can hit the DeLuca. Quote

Here's what I see on sabres.com Tage Thompson has missed the past three games with a lower-body injury but has been practicing with the team since Monday. Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said Wednesday morning that Thompson had not been ruled out to play on the road trip. “We’re just taking this a day at a time,” Ruff said. “Hopeful for Friday. If not Friday, you’re looking at Saturday.” Ruff will update the media following the team’s morning skate, which is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. EST. Quote
