You're unregistered, you don't count.
While the loss of Drury and Briere are HUGE for not only Buffalo's scoring, but their confidence as well, I think they'll find a way to put pucks in the net. Also, remember they still have Miller. SOO many aspects go into this.
Remember the depth the Sabres had the past few years? They didn't lose their 3rd and 4th lines, you know. I think if those two lines step up to the plate and do their share of scoring, Buffalo can easily see a number 2 or 3 spot. No doubt about it. Don't mind me, though. I'm just analyzing.
