The Sabres may be playing themselves out of a high draft pick, but there is reason to be optimistic about the team’s play of late.
The Buffalo Sabress most recent win, a 3-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils Tuesday evening, proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that this team does not give a damn about earning a lottery pick in the 2016 NHL Draft.
With two games left on their 2015-16, the Sabres are 34-35-11 with 79 points, good for 6th place in the Atlantic Division, 13th place in the Eastern Conference, and 22nd overall in the NHL.
