Fifteen: Buffalo (7th Atlantic)

Buffalo has so much to build forward with here. They are a young group of forwards with a thrown together group of aged defensemen. Coach Dan Bylsma has his work cut out but everyone knows this is simply a building for the future year. Jack Eichel C has cooled down but it is easy to see he will be a great player. Ryan O'Reilly C is playing great hockey and becoming a true leader for the Sabres.

Record: 14 - 16 - 4 32pts ( projected: 15 - 19 - 5 35pts)

Significant Injuries:
Tyler Ennis LW

Seems he is a day-to-day injury - he puts in good depth minutes.

Next Fifteen Days 12/20/2015 - 1/3/2016:
Saturday at Boston
Monday Washington visits
Wednesday at Washington
Thursday New York Islanders visit
Saturday Detroit visits

There is nothing easy in this fifteen days except maybe some extra days off. Buffalo has played the good teams well, it seems, right?

Some respectable wins in this fifteen days. Buffalo is growing. They shouldn't be expected to be a lot better than Edmonton of the last couple of years.
