World juniors under way

The world junior championships -- part of Patrick Kane's springboard to stardom last year -- have begun. You can follow the games at www.iihf.com or www.worldjuniors2008.com.

One of the top Sabres prospects, Jhonas Enroth, is the goaltender for Sweden. He made 30 saves today as the Swedes opened with a 4-3 victory over Slovakia. Enroth was the Sabres' second-round pick in 2006. Most of the team's other top prospects, including Nathan Gerbe and Tim Kennedy, are too old for the under-20 event.
