It’s the start of a new year in terms of the calendar cycling back to January, and the fact that another NHL season is about to get underway. I’ve never been a man about resolutions, New Years or otherwise, they inevitably end in failure, so I’ve kept my life altering plans a silent goal. Perhaps it was a moment of clarity after surviving the Mayan Apocalypse and then an even greater threat, the NHL lockout, but something has transformed my thought process on one Mr. Ville Leino. And thus I present to you a New Years resolution I will try and follow through, and one I believe all Sabres fans should embrace. So let’s all share in a moment of solidarity as fans and say it together “I do solemnly swear to cheer for, and support Ville Leino”. That wasn’t so hard was it?

When Mikhail Grigorenko was the first Russian player the Buffalo Sabres drafted since Vyacheslav Buravchikov in the 5th round of the 2005 Entry Draft, the hype machine was started on whether Grigorenko was the answer to all of the Sabres' questions.

25) What should the Sabres 2nd line be? Stafford-Ennis-Foligno
This was the Sabres best line down the stretch last year. It is a jack of all trades kind of line. There's the physicality of Foligino, the playmaking ability of Ennis, and the size and skill of Stafford. In the trio's last 13 games, Stafford had 17 points, Marcus Foligno had 13 points, and Tyler Ennis had...

From Paul Hamilton of WGR SportsRadio 550,
There are many things that have to fall into place if the Sabres are to contend. One of the biggest things this team needs is for Tyler Myers to not only be this team’s best defenseman, but one of the best defensemen in the NHL. Many feel Shea Weber is the best defenseman in the league and Tyler Myers used the off season to spend...
