many team officials are starting to feel a little discouraged But general manager Elmer Dunnsaidhelsnt disappointed because all the other teams in their league haven even started yet The teams I ve talked to all said they did what we re doing and found out it was a waste of lime and money The general managers said they now wait until after the Junior B clubs make their cuts then go on to the ico The trouble in getting potential players cut was again evident as the Sabres had only eight skaters out to Friday practice at the Arena In four prior practices the numbers were 30 and IS skaters I was initially surprised that more out but after talking with the other general managers I not now They other don seem worried about it Dunn said II has been a learning experience this year By knowing what we learned this year we II know when to book Die Ice for next year But problem facing the Sabres this year aside from getting players out Is finding a Friday was the final session at the arena as
