No morning skate for the #NHLBruins here in Buffalo. Bruce Cassidy addressing the media, says Jaro Halak gets the start in goal. Also could be a switch up front, but coaching staff is still discussing.

The lineup remains the same - and, in case you missed this, it’s so much better than the previous seven opening nights. https://theathletic.com/564644/2018/10/03/depth-charge-sabres-have-what-it-takes-to-move-forward/ … https://twitter.com/joeyerdon/status/1047857292908146688 …
Depth? Charge! Sabres have what it takes to move forward
While the future stars will get most of the attention on this team, the 2018-19 Sabres are deeper than most of their predecessors from the past decade.

Got the Jets at +104 last night at Pinnacle.in all my years following the Jets including the Jets version 1, I have not seen a team as jacked up to start a season as this team. First time a Jets team is a Stanley Cup contender and the players are eager to start the season. Also fresh in their minds is the 0-2 start to their season last year so players will be focused on starting season on the right foot.

That is my only concern. But a lot of hype too surrounding the supposedly improved st.louis team, not to mention their home opener.mismatch in goal favouring Winnipeg. See how it plays out.

every second tout that has a hockey play has the Jets.not the best sign. Surprised somewhat. figure they would be all over the Blues. I'm sticking to my guns, Luv my Jets tonight. also have a smaller play on the NY Rangers.that is stricty a fade play.
