      Check this out.

      When was the last time the Buffalo Sabres had another team's fans heading for the exits early?

        Flames focus on play without the puck after first loss

        After their first loss of the season on Thursday (6-3 to the Buffalo Sabres), the Calgary Flames got back to work Friday morning with a structured practice aimed at shoring up the team’s play without the puck.

        Buffalo jumped out to a 3-1 lead in the first period, chasing Flames goalie Jacob Markstrom after he allowed three goals on 12 shots. The Sabres looked like the far quicker team throughout the evening, constantly hemming Calgary in their defensive zone and using their lateral speed with the puck.

        “We had another s--- start [to] the game,” Flames defenceman Nikita Zadorov said of the team’s effort. “Too many turnovers. Too many odd-man rushes. We weren’t winning any battles down low. We knew what Buffalo was going to bring and that’s what they did, but we weren’t ready for it. It’s totally on us, totally unacceptable.”

        Friday’s practice focused on defensive zone coverage and stopping plays in transition.
        Some of you will recall that Zadarov was the Sabres 1st round pick in 2013. The 6' 6" Russian has found a home along the Calgary blueline.

        After giving up “too many” turnovers and odd-man rushes against the Buffalo Sabres Thursday, the Flames’ practice on Friday focused on defensive zone coverage and stopping plays in transition. Salim Valji has more from Calgary.


        Imagine. The Buffalo Sabres have affected how other teams adjusting their games. That is something else.

          I'm pleased they have identified some line combo's that click and can actually score.

            With two defensemen out injured, the Sabres call up Clague

            With two defensemen out injured, the Sabres call up Clague.

            Both Mattias Samuelsson and Henri Jokiharju have been put on injured reserve.

            Buffalo, NY (WGR 550) – The Buffalo Sabres lost Mattias Samuelsson to injury during the second period of Saturday’s game in Vancouver. After the game Don Granato said the injury isn’t as bad as first feared and it is positive, but Samuelsson will miss Tuesday’s game in Seattle as he's been put on IR.

            That means Lawrence Pilut will likely make his regular season return to the Sabres. On Sunday, Buffalo called up Kale Clague from the Rochester Americans to have in Seattle in case there’s another injury during Monday’s practice.

            Clague played four games for Buffalo during the preseason after signing a free agent contract with the Sabres over the summer.

                The NHL has named Rasmus Dahlin the league's #1 star for the week. Well-earned, IMO.

                  I was a huge fan of Zadorov when he was drafted. Glad he's carved himself out a decent career

                            Wheels came off last night. That was ugly. I didn't see the whole game- just the highlights- but it looked like the D was just bad. Way too many odd man rushes, way too many failed clearing attempts.

                            Still, taking 3 of 4 on a West Coast road trip is good.

                              I watched pretty-much all of it. Was dead at work the next day for staying up so late. That was just ugly. And Mittlestadt's laziness getting out of the zone took a goal off the board at a point when they could have started a turn-around. Stupid. The Kraken always beat the Sabres. Why is that? Anyway, YardRat is right. On to the next one. My take on this game is this: The Sabres REALLY miss Jokiharju & Samuelsson.

                                Constant giveaways finally burn them. 1-0 Habs.
