Sabres Links

• In their first game of the season, Shannon Szabados and the Beauts went Whale hunting in Hamilton, NY, winning 7-2.
• The Athletic’s Joe Yerdon reports on Twitter that the Sabres have a press conference scheduled for today with Brian Gionta. (hat tip: tocsik1 in the comments)
• Also in The Athletic, Tim Graham takes a sobering look at the post-concussion reaction that sent Kyle Okposo to the neurosurgical ICU back in 2017.

NHL Links

• Former Sabre Paul Byron earned a contract extension in Montreal with an AAV of $3.4 million. [Sportsnet]
• Robby Fabbri is injured again. What else is new? Hopefully it’s nothing serious.

And in non-NHL news... Tiger Woods ended a 5 year drought by winning the PGA Tour Championship. Hopefully that will inspire all the Sabres’ players who are such... avid... golf fans.
