Eichel, Reinhart are exciting as all hell. Kane too.

Eichel, Reinhart are exciting as all hell. Kane too.

The future is very bright. All the guys we are counting on for the future are better than expected.

 

.....now we have to just shed the dead weight and get a few more pieces

Eichel scores another slick goal.

Jeez - all the empty seats!

It was only 2 minutes in, many people hadn't made it to their seats yet.

Good on Bylsma and the organization for adhering to accountability. If Ovechkin can be suspended by the Caps for the same thing earlier this season, so can

Kane.

 

I feel sorry for the Blue Jackets come Friday. Kane will play like he was shot out of a cannon and will bring even more of an edge to his game. And he's a B word to play against as it is.

 

GO SABRES!!!

[YoloinOhio]

Where was Kane last night? Hangover city.

 

Edit: of course

@steveswenson4

Evander Kane was at the NBA all-star game yesterday and he called Sabres to say he won't be at practice today. Kane will not play tomorrow.

It was only 2 minutes in, many people hadn't made it to their seats yet.

 

But, aren't most of the people in their seats in the first period. I know 2 minutes into the 2nd and 3rd, it usually looks like that. Like the Ralph as the 3rd quarter starts.

It's going to be interesting to see how the Stamkos situation resolves itself.

It was pretty bad weather that day, so might have been a slow commute to the arena...Plus, no on can get to their seats during game action. I have had to wait in a long line for play to stop in order to get to my seats, only to have to wait again as only half the line made it through before the puck dropped again....

2-16: DAN BYLSMA ADDRESSES KANE BENCHING ON WGR (15:04)

 

Bylsma on Evander Kane: "Certainly disappointed and certainly disappointed he isn't going to play in tonight's game"

Bylsma: "I don't anticipate any other issues. He broke a rule and we dealt with it"

Bylsma: "To think Sam would come in this year and be right alongside (Eichel) in goal scoring...it's pretty remarkable"

Bylsma on Justin Bailey: "He's a young man who's starting to learn how to use his size"

@BNHarrington

Evander Kane is on ice for #Sabres optional skate.

Gionta not skating, just met with media. Said Kane addressed team here yesterday and apologized for his absence. #Sabres

Gionta on whether Kane needs to dial back on social media: "That's not for me to judge. Completely different generation I guess." #Sabres

Gionta on Kane: "Obviously it was disappointing. Guys were there, guys are at practice ready to work and you're missing one of your guys."

Last Gionta thought on Kane: "It's obviously something that happened but we're going to support him to try to rectify the problem."
