## Resource

Jordan Greenway, like Conor Timmins last week, has returned from injury. Zach Metsa is back from Rochester. Buffalo's roster is as close to 100% as it has been all season (though they will likely lose Sam Carrick for a period), how Lindy Ruff refines his lineup now that he's spoiled for choice will be telling. Timmins and Logan Stanley had their ups and downs as a pair, but with Metsa back, is he the best choice for Stanley's partner? Is Greenway a lock for the fourth line? How do they manage their skaters once the playoffs open? We also devote some time to tryout season in youth hockey as families throughout Western New York will be navigating tryouts this week, or earlier in the month for the younger age groups.
