Figured Boston, Pittsburgh and New Jersey would be the other three teams.
So the other two Sabres games will probably be Friday, September 7 vs New Jersey - 7:00 pm ET and Monday, September 10 vs Pittsburgh Penguins - 7:00 pm ET.
The Pittsburgh-New Jersey game will probably be Saturday, September 8 - 3:30 pm ET.

I have my kids on 9/8.
I may need to take my younger son to that game.

Should I just go ahead and assume now that this won’t be streamed, or is there a shred of hope for us out of towners?
I can’t remember the last time I was this excited for an entire team of prospects instead of just a few guys or a line. Probably never.

I've never gone to this before. I had planned on doing a weekend trip out to Traverse when the team was still playing up there, but then they decided to hold their own mini-tournament here.
For anybody who's attended these past few years - do the games typically sell out? Specifically that Saturday night game against Boston?

HarborCenter capacity is not that large and I say you should grab tickets as soon as possible with Dahlin playing.
Okay thanks; got em!
Dahlin, Mittelstadt, Asplund, Nylander, Olofsson, Oglevie, Malone, Pu, Thompson, Guhle, Borgen, Pilut, Hickey
Sign me up!
Does anybody know eligibility rules? I wonder if Thompson is still okay to play in this? Does it go by age, pro games, NHL games?
Sucks that the NCAA and European league players won't be around but it still seems like a pretty fun cast!
After seeing the havoc it wreaked on Nylander's season last year, and the fact that Dahlin and Mitts are all but assured NHL roster spots, I wonder if those two even play in the tournament. (I think they will play, because Buffalo fans would mutiny if they kept Dahlin down for his first show in Buffalo.)

Smart man, there should be WAY more hype around Dahlin then Eichel ever got. However; I don't know if the casual fan realizes how special Dahlin is.

Good to hear.
I remember at Jack's Prospect's Challenge they played all the Sabres Games at Keybank (First Niagara back then????) because the Harbor Center could not support the crowds. Also they didn't stream the games, if memory serves correctly.
I hope they Stream the games this year. If Fans are going to attend the games than they are going to go. No one is going to NOT go because they find out the game is streaming. Watching it online is a backup plan. No one is going to say "Oh the game isn't streaming, I have to get down there!" those fans are just going to come on this board to complain.

Also, to not stream is to ignore the Buffalo fan diaspora. There are tons of Sabres fans who simply can't get there, but would like a chance to see the prospects play.
I remember them streaming last year, and they streamed this year's French Connection tournament. I'd still like to attend this but I imagine they do stream.

Sorry if this has already been said and answered, but is there any news on the prospect challenge roster?
