What if Yakumchuk/ Kleven dominate? we just roll JBD out there next game and pretend we didn’t see anything?

TSN5, a bar/restaurant or at the game.

I heard @DrEasy was watching it in his basement, you can probably score an invite if you bring the doritos and make sure to keep your hands off his raddlers...

don't forget the 48 pack

 

[Ouroboros]

I guess Buffalo got an exemption from the 8 veteran rule?

Pretty grim rosters from both teams tonight.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Woof, those lineups.

Only real highlight I can see is Ullmark making his Sens debut, but he's only slated to play half the game.

At the very least I hope Kleven looks good against this Sabres lineup. It's AHL calibre at best.

 

[StoicSensFan]

Unless a decision has been made already, this could be the deciding game for the 4th line center role. Jenik vs Ostapchuk

Bell Fibe 1400.

Both could make it; given the performance of Gregor IMO.

Kleven Yakemchuk such an intriguing pairing.

Kleven Yakemchuk such an intriguing pairing.

I trust yak more than any other option for our #6 slot

Buffalo also has another pre-season game on saturday against Columbus and Detroit on monday so i guess they will against the same team that Buffalo puts out tonight

 

[SensFactor]

Should be a good game. I want Jenik or Ostapchuk to shine. Also Crookshank show me something!

Good point
Basically AHL vs AHL

Buffalo is icing an AHL/ECHL squad, hard to make any judgements when the opposition is so weak compared to NHL players. I hope Kleven has a strong game as he's our best prospect for 3rd pairing. But I think Yakumchuk will go back to the minors but could be called up due to injuries if he plays well. That is true of most of the rookies as there's only 1-2 forward spots available if you don't consider Gregor a lock. Kleven's spot is his to lose. If he struggles, I think they'll have to go out and get a player, probably on waivers as our depth on the left side is pretty slim.
