Yesterday was a new experience for Buffalo Sabres general manager Jason Botterill. He’s become used to having postseason press conferences and reviews in the middle of June, not the middle of April.
He’s become accustomed to watching his hockey team make a long playoff run, not finish last in the league and miss the playoffs by 36 points.
“Going through exit interviews on April 9th and 10th, flat out sucked,” said Botterill.
Losing Culture
It was evident the Sabres GM wasn’t pleased with the result of the season. He was straightforward and showed his frustration when he met with the media at KeyBank Center today.
