Buffalo, NY (WGR 550) -- Dominic Moore couldn't practice today as he waits for his work visa. He should have it straightened out by tomorrow's game so you'll likely see the new #17 take the ice.
Lindy Ruff has an idea where he'd like to use him. Ruff said, "I've given a lot of different thoughts on where to play him. Part of it may be an early look with Derek Roy, moving Derek to the wing based on the fact that Derek even has played some of his best hockey over there."
Phoenix is the opponent tomorrow, but new goaltender Mikael Tellqvist will not face his old teammates. Lindy Ruff likes the way Patrick Lalime has played and wants to keep him in against the Coyotes.
The Sabres will be scoreboard watching tonight as the Rangers visit the Islanders. The Islanders are 7-1-2 in their last ten home games. Calgary travels to Philadelphia and the real big one has Pittsburgh at Florida.
Former Sabre Ales Kotalik didn't have far to go to join his new team. Edmonton is in Ottawa.
