Gallagher looked good in the third, Beaulieu looked good as well. We have some great prospects coming up in the next couple years.

Easy there buddy, it's just pre-season.
Legit NHLers don't play to their fullest potential, they had nothing to prove tonight playing against kids. The Sabres were just warming up.. In real competition, it would have been a different story and the kids JM lined up tonight would not fare well at all.
I know this is hockeysfuture.. but let's not get carried away by the kids. Aside from Beaulieu (by far the most interesting prospect tonight), maybe Gallagher and Dumont who showed a bit of potential, the other guys were not impressive at all. I'm targeting in particular players like Palushaj, who has a lot to prove in order to be fighting for a spot. He will need to step it up big time if he wants to have a small crack at it.
