I didn’t see the game yesterday, but when I saw that Buffalo beat the Flyers 9-3, I was a bit concerned.  Luckily, we had pretty much nobody out there.  Scroll down to Player Summary  and you’ll see exactly what we were playing with.  Meanwhile the Sabres had a mix of regulars and prospects in their lineup. Still, 9-3 is pretty embarrassing.  A few nights ago, we had most of our big guns in the lineup against a highly over matched Islanders team, and only beat them 3-1.  We slept through that game, and maybe the pace of this one was different, I can’t say. Two nights earlier, the same teams played.  In that one, both sides featured a lot more regulars, and the Flyers came away with a 3-1 win. That’s a better measuring stick for the team as a whole. But obviously Laviolette was testing out the young guys to see them one last time.  This was the final preseason game, and the last chance for some people to get noticed or prove that they belonged
