Eleven games into the season, the Buffalo Sabres aren’t doing bad so far. Plenty of players have been producing, including captain Jack Eichel (11 points) and newcomer Jeff Skinner (12 points). But as always happens on a team, there are some players who need to step up their game as the season continues.
Here are five of them:
Evan Rodrigues (10 gp, 0 goals, 4 assists)
Rodrigues isn’t actually off from where he was 10 games into his season last year - he had 3 points (2-1) in his first 10 games, but those didn’t come until December.
