http://blogs.buffalonews.com/sabres/201 ... abres.html Quote: The Sabres' top prospect appears set to make his NHL debut. Zack Kassian, Buffalo's first-round pick in the 2009 draft, has been summoned from Rochester to play for the injury-plagued Sabres, according to the Twitter accounts of Kassian's friends and teammates. "Congrats to my best friend zack kassian on getting the call up with the Buffalo Sabres!#lighterup!!" wrote Daniel Maggio, a junior player who lives in Kassian's hometown of Windsor, Ont. Neither the Sabres nor Amerks have announced a transaction. Kassian leads the Amerks with seven goals and 14 points in 18 games. An ankle injury to right wing Brad Boyes suffered during Wednesday's 4-3 loss to Boston coupled with a lower-body injury that kept right wing Patrick Kaleta out of practice today created the need for a forward. Can't say I'm a huge fan of this. I'd rather the kid stayed down and learned the pro game a little more. We don't gain anything by rushing him into the NHL. |

Kassian will want to stay. So he will play hard. I hope it helps. These guys need a boost. |

Can't really say we are rushing the guy, he may just be ready. He is a injury call up so it'll be good for him to get a few NHL games under his belt. And if he impresses maybe Sabres keep him up longer. Plus he's a big rugged body add that to his style (lucic style) both something we need on this team. Let's go Kassian!!!!! |

I know this was from injuries but why didnt they do this on Wedneday night against Boston?? Kassian is sort of like Lucic type forward, at least that what I saw from his time in Windsor and Peterborough. |

Kassian is sort of like Lucic type forward, at least that what I saw from his time in Windsor and Peterborough. Kassian has remained on the down-low in Rochester. He's been in only one fight (out of necessity because Foligno started a line brawl) and he isn't going out of his way to make the big hit. He's showing up on the score sheet, though, with 14 points in 18 games. I don't think he's going to be that make-or-break physical presence the Sabres have been lacking. |

Excited to see what Kassian can bring to the table. We need something, anything, to get us going again. |

It'll be interesting to see what the kid has right now but not expecting much. |

"Knowing the criteria, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to guess who among the Buffalo Sabres is considered the honey badger. That would be 5-5 Nathan Gerbe(notes), who is fearless when taking on larger NHL players (i.e. all of them)." I dare you to tell Gerbe he is not the honey badger. He would tear your ass up. Kassian is more of a mountain lion. |

Gerbe's the honey badger. Kassian's the sabre cat with a rocket attached to his back. |

While the badger goes apeshit on the prey the sabre cat leaps in full bore and unleashes the rocket arsenal located on his back. This leaves a bloody mess on the ice and strikes fear into all those who wish to fuck with the herd. |

The bear(goose) watches over his energetic/ruthless understudies and if anyone fucks with his youngapprentices he unleashes fists of fury(imagine bear from The Edge with Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin) |
