Buffalo Sabres First Game




Tyler Myers looks like a keeper and Tim Kennedy looked good too. They did seem more physical even in losing in OT to the Canadiens 2-1. Tim Connolly scored the Sabres only goal and it looked like the Sabres would take it to them early. The Habs had an instant replay of their win over Toronto with goaltender Carey Price eventually stealing the show from a good Ryan Miller performance. Gionta, Gomez, and Cammeleri may revive the Habs this year.


Where was Vanek? He looked a little lost. Drew Stafford continues to underachieve. The entire defense looked more aggresive and improved for the Sabres. Jason Pomminville avoided the corners and anything that moved again but he did provide some puck movement and stickhandling. I don't care for him on the powerplay point anymore as he loses the puck too often. Roy looked very good too. You gotta love Kaleta. I think it's too early to pass judgement on them. They could be a lot better but it was hard to tell in such a boring game ("Play appears to be ragged at times").
