It's always going to take months, not weeks, for a team with a new coaching system and nearly 40% of the roster being new faces to come together and show what really are.
Opening in Europe was really unfortunate for a team that is going through as much transition as the Sabres are from last season.
Two games don't worry me, and I cautioned this summer that the start will likely be slow, hopefully they can tread water with good goaltending early in the season for several weeks until they figure out their identity and the chemistry starts to come together.
