Wonder if Boston requested being the team with only 2 games or if it was just luck of the draw.

Small prospect pool maybe?

This is the usual group that comes to Buffalo. But it's also hard to create an even schedule with 5 teams playing 3 games each. If they played 4 games then it works.

Thought in the past that the Sabres took an extra game that didn't end up counting towards the overall standings to let all the visitors take 3 games each.  Though seem to recall the B's or Joisey only playing 2 last year because they weren't bringing as many prospects as the rest brought.

Could be. I never paid close enough attention. But I do enjoy going to these games. Too bad the Bills open at home the weekend before. Otherwise I'd be there.

In a way this could help morale although the expectations for the big club would still be low.

Drafted Matteo Costantini 5 years ago didn’t even realize he had a contract!

I think it’s an Amerks deal

[pastajoe]

Will they be shown on the Sabres website?

Just waiting for prospect challenge line combinations. Plug it directly into my veins.

I highly doubt they can compete with heroin.

Only thing holding Novikov back is footspeed. He needs to be quicker.

It appears I've made 14k posts... and in fewer years than since the Sabres last made the playoffs. They're a really bad habit.

There was a time when I went to all the prospects games.  Now I look at the roster and don't even recognize 1/3 of the names.  Being indifferent to your team sucks.
