With Jack Quinn on the mend, a few Buffalo Sabres must step up during the first half of the season. Fortunately, they have the talent.
Yesterday, I concocted a list outlining who could potentially replace Jack Quinn during his rehab. Today, I’m expanding on that and talking about three players who must step up an aspect of their game while the second-year winger is on the mend.
The players listed below aren’t bad. In fact, each should be in the Buffalo Sabres long-term plans. Given their respective roles with the team, however, they will need to bring their A-game from the time the puck drops on October 12th until New Year’s Eve.
