If the Sabres have a strength it is at forward. With questions in goal, and youth on defense, the Sabres have their best players up front. Down the middle the Sabres are young, but man are they talented. Head coach Dan Bylsma has already stated he plans on starting Ryan O’Reilly as the first line center. After him the Sabres have Zemgus Girgensons, Jack Eichel, Sam Reinhart, and Johan Larsson all capable of playing center on the 2nd or 3rd lines. The wingers have both a veteran influence as well as one of youth. This could be the best first line the Sabres have had since the Lafontaine and Mogilny days.
1st Line: Tyler Ennis- Ryan O’Reilly- Evander Kane
