    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips October 12, 2013 Sabres-Blackhawks Preview By Nicolino DiBenedetto Associated Press October 12, 2013 The Buffalo Sabres are off to their worst start in 14 years. Facing the reigning Stanley Cup champions on the road isn't likely to change that. The Sabres attempt to avoid a sixth straight defeat Saturday night when they meet the Chicago Blackhawks. Buffalo (0-4-1) hasn't endured a worst start to a season since going 0-5-2 to begin 1999-2000. The Sabres have shown few signs of ending their struggles, getting outscored 14-5 while going 2 for 18 on the power play. "We have guys in here that can make plays," goaltender Ryan Miller said. "We just have to get past this little hump we're having trouble with and you can't just work hard, get a puck and not do anything with it. We have to start doing things with it." Buffalo didn't do much Thursday, giving up three first-period goals in a 4-1 home loss to Columbus. Thomas Vanek and Cody Hodgson have been among the few offensive bright spots with four points each over the past three games. Those two have combined for eight of the team's 13 points this season. Vanek, the captain for home games, had team highs of 20 goals and 41 points in 38 games last season. He's been limited to two assists in four career visits to Chicago. Hodgson has four points in four meetings with the Blackhawks, who have won three straight games versus Buffalo, including the last two at the United Center.

    Pittsburgh Colts, Revived This Season with Brosky As Coach

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 2 (1999) FOOTBALL’S FERTILE CRESCENT II In football, professionalism is a question of attitude “A pro, Danny? A pro is how you think of yourself." -- from the movie “About Last Night. .", as adapted from the play “Sexual Perversity in Chicago,” by David Mamet. By Eric Poole Reprinted from The Record In Ed Brosky's opinion, professionalism in football is about much more than getting a paycheck. And he is uniquely qualified to know. As a college player, the Chartiers Valley High School graduate was a teammate of NFL and NCAA Hall- of-Famer Tony Dorsett on the University of Pittsburgh's national championship team. A decade coaching on Western Penn-sylvania's sandlots and three seasons as the head coach at Canon-McMillan crystallized his opinion on that subject. “Professionalism is a state of mind," he says. “That should be the philosophy of any footbaII program.” It's the philosophy of the new Pittsburgh Colts, revived this season with Brosky as coach. Last Saturday, the Colts played their second home game, more than a decade after the team disbanded and 16 seasons since they played for the national championship of minor league football. In 1981, the Colts won the right to meet the Twin City (Calif.) Cougars, who became the Oakland Invaders of the United States Football League. “They beat up on us pretty good,” is all the player-coach remembers about the game, won by the Cougars. The accommodations, which were in no way minor league, were another -- longer -- story. The Colts spent the week in preparation for the game as professionals -- not just in attitude, but in prerequisites.
