The Buffalo Sabres are bringing the heat for their preseason lineup tonight against the Penguins. Well, about as much heat as they can:
This will mark the NHL preseason debut of No. 1 overall pick Rasmus Dahlin, and it will be very interesting to watch him make his first action against the Penguins. One figures he could be playing with Rasmus Ristolainen or Marco Scandella a lot this season, and tonight he could get a taste there. That’s three top-four NHL-caliber defensemen, which is a very strong showing.
