Buffalo Sabres Head Coach Don Granato Ahead Of Matchup Against New York Rangers

How can you build off of Thursday’s performance and carry some of that momentum into tonight well I think the start is the start in in getting into it um is key um you know I think I’ve said it before I said the other day you start

Z00 so you got to you got to put the work in right away and uh that’s that’s the focus and then coming off such a high performance like you had against Toronto what is the key to resetting ahead of the next game yeah I mean our

Group has been through lots of ups and downs uh through the course of the year and you know I think that’s that’s um they’re mature bring through it I think we are as a as a team and uh tonight’s another opportunity so I think guys are excited for that and and moving forward

Really I think you just this league you got to move forward and you got to move forward fast any lineup changes uh no lineup changes uh other than uh in that so okay um what does it do for a team when it’s captain in this case Kyle of

Course is having is playing the way that he has you know especially the last month or so Kyle has definitely stepped up his game um his compete um and you know things are going in for him he always he always competes he always plays hard he’s been in a better Rhythm

Uh lately and that’s nice to see um because of the work he puts in what did you think of the way that Clifton and power worked together the other night thought they were great I thought Clifton was very good uh one of his best games and looked a lot more like himself

Which is um nice to see and obviously we would love that to continue now these the circumstances today I mean you’re forced not to have a morning skate is there a benefit to doing that especially with how many games you guys have played where you’re at um and how do you take

Advantage I guess of of the situation yeah you know no morning skate you you you know it’s a routine these guys are in a routine but um we actually took the morning off the other day with Toronto I thought rest was better um you know we

Haven’t had a lot of rest with the grind of the schedule and travel and things and uh you know we know every team in the league is better when they’re fresh uh so um you don’t know if it’s an advantage until you till you see right

Uh it’s the beauty of uh you know 7 p.m. you don’t know what you have and and the beauty of sports but you got to get your body ready differently maybe do some different things in warmup maybe pregame warm up get the body moving uh because

You didn’t have a morning skate but um but yeah it’s uh it’s like every other night though Lance at 7 o’cl you you know you turn the TV on and you hop behind the bench and you got an idea what may happen but uh but let the excitement go noticeable difference on

Special teams the other night with everyone I mean you guys are getting healthier again when you have green way on the PK you see just Improvement all across the board there yeah I mean anytime you add depth uh in depth we’re talking about you know Skinner back in

The lineup Quinn back in the lineup Greenway back in the lineup that’s three major components so that helps everybody it it shifts guys back into their normal roles so you’re not asking guys to do too much or more and have focused on different things um so everybody has a

Greater Clarity a greater sense of objective and and that should help awesome
