NHL Rumors: Buffalo Sabers vs. Edmonton Oilers
Buffalo Pressure Installation
TSN: Chris Johnston says things are tough for the Buffalo Sabers after starting the season 0-3 and not making the playoffs in the past 14 years.
“If you talk to the front office or the coaching staff, they say, look, the team itself hasn’t been playing well enough. They’ve been battling some injury issues as well. But the Sabers are really hot already, even though we’re just a week into the season. They have two tough home games at home this week.
We’ll be watching things closely because if they don’t start winning some games, general manager Kevin Adams and everyone in the front office will definitely feel pressure to do something. “

Will Nick Robertson start over somewhere?
TSN: The Toronto Maple Leafs have had conversations with the team about Nick Robertson, according to Darren Dreger, as speculation surrounding the forward continues.
“The 24-year-old finds himself back in a very familiar position with the Toronto Maple Leafs, looking for a bigger role and opportunity in the National Hockey League. He’s on his way to 160 NHL games. I know Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving has recently had conversations with clubs that may be interested in Nick Robertson. This is a tough situation for Robertson given the depth the Maple Leafs have. So maybe it’s time for him to get a fresh start elsewhere.”
