[Myllz]

Four goals from Eichel or I'll be disappointed.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Eichel with a goal. Sabres win. Only fitting that last year Eichel started the season with a game (and goal) against the Sens, make it two in a row.

 

[ozpensfan]

Eichel with 3 assists, Sam Reinhart 3 goals...

 

[enthusiast]

second year eich begins now

 

[ZZamboni]

Eichel with no points. It's a shake the rust off game for him.



Sens with a 3-1 beating. Foligno or Grant with the goal.

 

[jBuds]

5-3 Sens. Eichel with three goals, two unassisted and one from Falk

 

[wunderpanda]

Don't get shut out. Go Sabres.

 

[Sabre Dance]

Should be a fun game. 4-3 Sens in a shoot out.

Kane
Okposo
Fedun

Eichel with a PP assist.

 

[Aladyyn]

Four goals from Eichel or I'll be disappointed.

Five. Being as good as Matthews is not good enough

11-29: DAN BYLSMA TALKS WITH HOWARD AND JEREMY ON WGR (14:34)

#Sabres head coach Dan Bylsma is on WGR right now with Howard and Jeremy! Tune in:

Bylsma - there's a possibility Eichel can play tonight. To this point, he's reacted to every test very well. We'll see this morning #Sabres

Bylsma - Eichel has recovered well, reacted well to the stress on his ankle0. It's been a long road, but a good solid road for Jack #Sabres

Bylsma - We're not gonna use 15 on the PK or a full load at 5-on-5. We wanna try to get him 15-18 minutes and see where that goes #Sabres

Bylsma - Reinhart & Kane will benefit from Eichel being back. Everyone will benefit better because they'll fit into their roles more #Sabres

Bylsma - Eichel's play in practice has had a trickle-down effect on the rest of the team. Hope to see that in game action too #Sabres

Bylsma - wanna work towards being a faster, quicker team. Not just w/skating, but how we move the puck. Getting healthier will help #Sabres

Bylsma - Bogosian is at Week 4 of a 4-6 week injury. Kulikov has been skating for a bit. He's the closest to returning #Sabres

Bylsma on 23: he's going where he needs to go to have success. Nice to see him score. Hope to see him be more effective when 15 is back

Bylsma on 28: he's a player who's searching for ways to have success & he's struggling. He's one of our hardest workers, needs a lucky break

Bylsma on 48: he shows a huge energy level, high compete, and skates like the wind. He leads the team in hits in his short time here #Sabres

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

if we score 12 goals tonight and shut out Ottawa we can pull into a 3-way tie for last in GF in the east, I'm hopeful

Kind of comical to me that Lehner's numbers are pretty much what Miller's were when he was here.

 

[threeVo]

2-1 game in a toss up.

 

[26CornerBlitz]

 

[haseoke39]

5-4 Sens

Lehner with a meltdown.

 

[26CornerBlitz]

5-4 Sens

Lehner with a meltdown.

Lehner usually plays pretty well against his former team.

 

[1972]

I feel like Eichel always has big games against the Sens.

 

[Sansbacon]

I'm not expecting Eichel to come in and light it up in his first game back, but it will be disappointing if the team plays flat with a mostly healthy forward core now.

And this is definitely a game I want to see Lehner start.

[Sabresfansince1980]

if we score 12 goals tonight and shut out Ottawa we can pull into a 3-way tie for last in GF in the east, I'm hopeful

I thought I was the only one thinking the same thing. This can happen especially when Eichel scores 11. If not, torches and pitchforks.

 

[Clock]

Eichel doesn't get any points, multiple idiotic threads ensue.

 

[Aladyyn]

After tonight people can no longer use the "no talent" excuse, thank god.
