QUOTES TO NOTE:

That’s what the media and the fans are going to notice, the biggest difference is every guy is going balls out.
- Kevin Hayes

It’s really hard to look at all the positive and all the things we did well when we don’t win.
We were looking forward to this game all summer and all training camp, and you don’t come out with a win, it sucks.
- Mika Zibanejad

I didn’t think we really played to the level that we’re looking for.
We just have to be harder on the puck, we have to do a better job of playing in-your-face hockey.
I thought we backed off too often and just gave them too much room.
- David Quinn

Dahlin, Eichel, Thompson, Mittelstadt, Reinhart.

They've got a nice looking new core.

What I`m concerned about is if M. Staal has a great game and perhaps score a goal in Buffalo.. If so he will play too many games this season so young talents that need a lot of match practice like DeAngelo won`t benefit from it concerning his development, and I don`t understand why Quinn use so many veterans on our blueline since we are rebuilding. There are no pressure to perform related to playoffs in NY after the new direction. DeAngelo need to play games if not in NHL in the next 10 games - he should be sent down to Wolfpack with Lias in my opinion and we can use another defender as the 7th or 8th defender.

Buffalo didn't look great against Boston, I think we'll win this one

At this point the sabres are a 'I'll believe it when I see it' team - all promise and good on paper but just never put it on the ice

I think Henrik need a shutout and it`s a good game to have a good start on the road, but some weather forecast warning even though we won`t play in Florida - Henrik is a slow starter and consider we have 3 passers in Vesey - Hayes - Zucc we don`t score a lot recently. :DD

So more likely Buffalo will get a win here and least my prediction this evening, but I always want Rangers to win.

I predict that Buch, Zucc, Kevin score tonight so a 4-3 win to Buffalo in another tight game! :nod:

Buffalo outshoots Rangers 55 - 35, Hank stands on his head. Staal boops his head into Fast' butt during a crease scrimmage, everyone has a chuckle.

Yes some coaches use veterans instead - and if they are productive as well they will never leave the lineup. :)
