The Blackhawks wrapped their season-opening road trip with another loss, dropping a 4-3 regulation decision in Buffalo. The effort was better than Utah. There were parts of the game that went well. The final score wasn’t what anyone wanted. And the Blackhawks certainly didn’t want to be coming home 0-3-0 to open the new season. Now, they’ll need to sort things out and get it together before hosting the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday night in the home opener.

Odelein’s professional career began in 1986, when the Canadiens selected him with the 141st overall pick (then in the seventh round) from the WHL’s Moose Jaw Warriors. He didn’t debut with Montreal until the 1989-90 season, though he spent much of the year with the AHL’s Sherbrooke Canadiens.…

Game #2 Preview & Open Thread: Sabres vs Blackhawks -
Byram Will Not Play in Buffalo Return Unfortunately, there is only one “revenge game” tonight. Former defenseman Bowen Byram will not play for Chicago tonight. Blackhawks coach Jeff Blashill said Byram is tending to a family matter. That means Sabres fans will have to wait for Byram’s first game back at KeyBank Center since Buffalo traded him to Chicago this summer. Jordan Greenway is still expected to be in Chicago’s lineup and will face the Sabres for the first time since the trade. Byram’s absence forces Chicago to reshuffle its defense. Kevin Korchinski and Ethan Del Mastro will both make their season debuts after sitting out the Blackhawks’ first two games. Byram didn’t have the best first game, but I’m sure it will improve. Byram got everything he wanted when he was traded: to be the #1 D-man and a big contract, so “revenge” is a little harsh. Zellweger Is In There is no longer much

Keep Holding On: Blackhawks at Sabres Preview -
The Chicago Blackhawks look to salvage something from their season-opening road trip when they visit the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday night. After what happened on Thursday night in Utah, something is setting the bar pretty low. The Sabres also aren’t off to a great start, either, having lost 6-3 on the road to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday, although there were at least some positives for Buffalo after a terrible first period. Twice the Sabres cut the deficit to one in the second period but they never found the equalizer and Columbus eventually put the game away with two goals in the third. The Sabres will be looking to right the ship in their second game, especially since it’ll be their home opener (yes, the Blackhawks will be the opponent in yet another team’s first home game — gross). The Sabres forward group is still led by Tage Thompson, who went a point-per-game last season with 81 points (40 G, 41 A) while

What Fatherhood Means for Wennberg—and Stenberg -
For Alex Wennberg, fatherhood has changed the way he sees hockey. Six weeks after welcoming his third child, the perspective he brings home with him now carries into the rink, where a new generation of players is beginning to find its way. “All of a sudden you have kids, and it’s like a bigger picture of life.” That perspective may be especially valuable for an 18-year-old Swede making his first steps in the NHL. A connection that could make Wennberg’s role as a veteran leader even more important. Now, in the Sharks locker room, a new connection is forming between experience as a veteran alternate captain and a freshly drafted teen who play side by side on the same line. When Stenberg was drafted second overall, one connection may have mattered most. Wennberg sees a mirror — just 13 years into the past (and minus half his last name). Their paths look similar in geography, style, and, most importantly, the transition to the United States. Wennberg

Much has been made of Marchenko slotting in on the left side of the top line, in the spot formerly held by Matthew Knies, despite playing primarily as a right winger during his time in Columbus. But the shift to the left is, in fact, a return to Marchenko’s natural position, rather than an experiment.

Konsta Helenius piti hyökkäyksen elossa ja painoi kiekon hetkeä myöhemmin komealla kudilla ylähyllylle -
Buffalo Sabresin Konsta Helenius avasi maalitilinsä komeasti. Helenius piti ensin tilanteen elossa ja viimeisteli sen hetkeä myöhemmin. Columbus Blue Jackets päihitti Buffalo Sabresin kotonaan maalein 6-3, mutta Sabresin Konsta Heleniukselta nähtiin tappiosta huolimatta komea suoritus. Tämä tapahtui toisessa erässä, kun Sabres nousi Heleniuksen ansiosta maalin päähän.

82,5 miljoonan dollarin diili jysähti pöytään – Tony Salmelainen haluaa nyt vielä enemmän -
Adam Fantilli solmi Columbus Blue Jacketsin kanssa massiivisen kuuden vuoden jatkosopimuksen, jonka kokonaisarvo on 82,5 miljoonaa dollaria. Kanadan maajoukkuehyökkääjä pelasi viime kaudella uransa tehokkaimman NHL-kauden. Fantilli keräsi 82 ottelussa 59 tehopistettä. Tuore jättisopimus nostaa luonnollisesti myös odotuksia 21-vuotiaan hyökkääjän ympärillä. Atleetin asiantuntija Tony Salmelainen arvostaa Fantillin ominaisuuksia, mutta näkee hänen pelissään vielä yhden tärkeän kehityskohteen. […]

NHL-gooni hyökkäsi pienikokoisen Sabres-pakin kimppuun – valmentaja ihmetteli: ”En tiedä mitä hän ajatteli” -
Mathieu Olivier ei aikaillut kauden ensimmäisen tappelunsa kanssa. Columbus Blue Jacketsin hyökkääjä pudotti hanskat Buffalo Sabresin pienikokoista Zach Metsaa vastaan torstain kaudenavauksessa.

Tempusta seurasi epäurheilijamainen käytösrangaistus. Metsa kävi tilanteessa Olivierin […]
