    Peterka is not a lock yet. Hot and cold.

      Wasn't he the better of the two at the end of last season in Rochester?

        The first 2 minutes or so of the third were REALLY sloppy; Buffalo gave up 2 goals in the span of 2 minutes. Then it was meh up until Peterka notched the empty-netter.

          He did pick up his play in the latter half of the season; personally, I'd send him down to the Amerks to start the season and if he keeps improving, bring him up.

            You are 100% correct. Quinn went ice cold in the playoffs. 2 assists in 10 games while Peterka had 7 goals and 5 assists.

            I am strictly going by what the media talking heads have stated this past month. Quinn is flying and getting good results. Locking up a spot on the 2nd line.

            Peterka was scheduled for the 3rd line but is 50/50 for making opening night, due to playing a bit tentative and making some mistakes. Hinistroza may take his spot for now but I realize that's just the chatter. Sounds like they want to get him going better, which may indicate Rochester initially but we'll see. He had 68 points in the AHL regular season. Quinn had 61 in only 45 games once he returned from injury and was always the top guy for promotion.

            I'm rooting for him and fully expect to see him sooner or later. Maybe it's just finding him the right 2 guys to play with on a line.

              The issue is the sabres have too many guys that block him having a spot in the lineup.

              I think spot call ups should be the way until the deadline comes and guys are offloaded

                Comrie looks awful.

                Sabres down 2-0 early vs Penguins.

                  3-0 in the first.

                  No Dahlin, Thompson, Power or Skinner.

                      Makes up for giving away the first Pittsburgh goal.

                      Fake games done. On to the season. Godspeed lads.

                        OPINION: Sabres end 2022 preseason 4-2-0

                        The article is subtitled: "Buffalo has work to do in the six days leading up to the regular season"

                        I'll say. The Sabres will start by going up against a vastly improved Ottawa Senator team that beat them soundly at the end of last season.

                          Okposo selected Captain

                          Girgensons and Dahlin Alternates

                          FWIW

                            Okposo has put in his time as a Sabre, I guess. Not the most awe-inspiring captain, but far, far from the worst they have had. Here's the list:

                              I think Okposo is in the last year of his deal and it's a kind gesture in what probably is his last season. JMO.

                                Honestly, I think Dahlin becomes the next captain of the Sabres if Okposo does exit after the season.
