Tempers Flare at Buffalo Sabres Practice

After the anticipation of starting the season in Czechia against the New Jersey Devils, things took a turn for the unfortunate. The Sabres started 0-3 before securing their first win on Saturday against the Florida Panthers. With hopes of competing for a playoff position this season, the 0-3 start has been less than ideal for the Sabres.

This morning, tempers boiled over at a Buffalo Sabres practice between Rasmus Dahlin and Peyton Krebs as they got into an on-ice altercation after Dahlin threw an open-ice hip check on Krebs and continued to pursue him, which led to both players throwing punches.

Both Dahlin and Krebs are starting the season slow, with only an assist apiece.

Is this a positive passion interaction amongst teammates? Or is this frustration boiling over between two teammates who have an issue over the rough start in Buffalo?
