Sabres Training Camp: Day One Notes and Observations

The Buffalo Sabres kicked off their on-ice portion of training camp today wit two sessions. It was a fast-paced practice that emphasized skating and playing with speed.

“I think the guys really worked hard today, I mean it was a tough...tough go in both sessions, a lot of skating after the play, which we’re trying to encourage our guys and part of our identity is back pressure...” said second year head coach Phil Housley after practice.

Right from the start you could feel that Housley wanted everything done with pace. During the drills and once the drill were completed.
