We've known since clinching 30th place last season that the future is bright for the Buffalo Sabres, but the level of excitement surround tomorrow's scrimmage at development camp is approaching supernova status.
According to multiple reporters, the Sabres have already sold almost 10,000 tickets to tomorrow's scrimmage, and will almost certainly add another thousand-plus in walk-up sales. More fans will be attending this mid-July scrimmage than most of the Sabres home games after the trade deadline last season.
#Sabres update: The team says about 9,500 tickets have now been sold for tomorrow night's scrimmage.
