Inside the NHL: Carolina's Sebastian Aho is in town and Sabres have to stop him
'We're not here to disparage Carolina Hurricanes center Sebastian Aho, who is a five-time 30-goal scorer and enters Sunday's game in KeyBank Center against the Sabres just nine away from 300 goals in his NHL career. But there's really no way he should be in the same sentence as Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon.

Sabres’ Alex Tuch steps up by creating goals; Bowen Byram avoids injury
'“Oh yeah, I felt like more myself,” Tuch said of Friday’s effort. “I felt like I had some good jump. My work with the puck was a little bit better. I think I was holding onto it and hanging onto pucks and ragging it a little bit, which I think helps my game and I think creates a lot of space for my linemates, too.

‘You saw a full 60 for the first time, in a while’: Sabres get productive in 9-3 win against Chicago
'“Keeping things simple,” Thompson said of his line’s output. “Work ethic. I thought we were hounding pucks on the forecheck.

We were able to establish the o-zone and tire them out.”' … [Read more...] about ‘You saw a full 60 for the first time, in a while’: Sabres get productive in 9-3 win against Chicago
