The Buffalo Sabres will play the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight after a majority-Amerks side lost 4-1 last night to the Pittsburgh Penguins at the PPG Paints Arena. Expect to see a lineup that is more of what we will expect to start the season in October.
Buffalo will play four preseason games in six days, and with players only allowed to play in two games per the new collective bargaining agreement, there will be lots of rotation and not many opportunities for players to make an impression on fans and the coaching staff.
