Eric Staal suffered an injury in last night’s Sabres opener on a hit to the head. Coach Krueger and some other members of the team were not pleased with the hit.
The Buffalo Sabres are looking to build team chemistry and rhythm with a roster of new additions as they kicked off the shortened 2020 season last night against the Washington Capitals, which saw the Caps come out on top 6-4.
