Michael Pachla: Building the 2017-18 Buffalo Sabres roster--The Reserves

I believe I am first.

Love your Blogs man!!

So who are actually healthy and left in Camp besides the obvious who will make the roster? Is there a list anywhere?

Nearest I can Tell on the Blueline we have Fedun/Falk/Gorges and Tennyson left on Blue line outside of the Top 6...Tenny having a good camp and being a RH Shot has to give him some leverage...

Will Scandella be ready to start season?. Not sure if we can even send Fedun down to RCH if anyone can clarify.

But who's left in Camp at Forward is the question

- MTLSabres

Left at forward are:

Bailey
Baptiste
Delsauriers
Eichel
Girgensons
Griffith
Josefson
Kane
Larsson
Malone
Moulson
Nylander
O'Reilly
Okposo
Pominville
Pouliot
Reinhart
Rodrigues


The ones italicized are injured right now I believe.

DLO:

42 gp, 0 goals, 2 a, -6.

I don't even see him as the extra forward. His NHL career is over

Interesting that one injury can change someone's fortunes, was sure Bailey was getting sent down again, now may get his shot.

My impression from the Leafs game was that Antipin has the skill, but reminds me of a true rookie because of the mistakes. He rushed up ice multiple times and made some decent plays, but he fudged the first goal and let a couple squeekers by him on the PP that could have been nice keep ins, that lead to bigger plays.

I think he will be a good one. Needs some time to adjust and watch tape. Wonder if Gorgio gets a few games because of that adjustment period.

@honkforthegoose. It's an ad / pop up blocker....you whitelist. Site you want to allow, its a little annoying the first day but after that it great.... and if it really gets old you can turn it off and on pretty easy. Highly recommended....

I'll have to check it out. You don't have issues with this site crashing/refreshing every 20 seconds on your iPad?

For anyone who watched the game, how did Moulson work with Eichel. I assume it was bad

I'll pass....

Soy is actually one of the most commonly genetically modified foods in the world, and tofu is made from soybeans, water and a coagulant, or curdling agent. According to Dr. Kaayla Daniel, author of “The Whole Soy Story,” soy is not a health food, does not prevent disease and has not even been proven safe. Furthermore, numerous scientific studies link soy to digestive troubles, malnutrition, thyroid dysfunction, cognitive decline, reproductive disorders, as well as heart disease and cancer.

Love the writing Pach, and I try not to be a proof reader.

There's a trend in sports writing and sports reporting, generally, to use the word "aggressiveness."

What's wrong with "aggression."

This weeks "buzzword." No need to get aggressive over this one.

stay on topic

thought the bills, the worst team in the league was getting blown out yesterday

Last football post from me today:

The few dozen players that were kneeling before the anthem prior to this week did so quietly and peacefully and in a non disrespectful way. No issue

45 tweets out crap and the players decide to unify, they are more or less protesting him and his mouth over what the original protest was for in the first place.

My issue was Shady stretching during the anthem, if you want to protest and take a knee with the rest of the team do it, but don't act like it's not being played. That was wrong IMO.

Now on to the game:

Taylor's best game in a long time. Plus he got the win. People looking at the stat line (Douche this is you) only see 213 yards, but what I see is a 77% completion percentage, over 10 yards per reception gain, 2 touch downs, and no INT's. He is not going to be the 300 yard passing QB when he is only throwing 25 times a game. But what he did yesterday against a really good defense is something I would like to see him build on.

The Bills defense is playing that bend down break Jim Swartz type football. It suits them. Next week is a huge test but these guys are pretty good.

Now hockey post:

Antipin is going to make some overly aggressive mistakes, the way Housley is coming across is he would rather those types of mistakes over the overly passive mistakes.

It will be fun to watch this year!

Easy with the aggression over the use of the word aggressiveness.
I do like an aggressive attack and do hope that is a big part of Housely's system.

Haha I guess we know that the blue jackets won't be kneeling this season..

I agree, Antipin is the guy I'm most excited to see how he will play and fit in.
I see this team playing more like the '05 '06 Sabres when the attacked as a 5 man unit with the trailing D open quite a bit for many dangerous shots...and that seems to be Antipins game. Once he gets comfortable, he could have a big year.

Oh man, if Kane does, fans will go NUTS

Kane can only kneel for the Canadian anthem, I guess
