Buffalo Sabres Prospects: Mikhail Grigorenko’s Future

Where is the relationship between the Buffalo Sabres and Mikhail Grigorenko at?  The first three years with the organization the relationship seemed strained, almost forced.

The Sabres drafted Mikhail Grigorenko 12th overall in the 2012 draft.  Yes – he is a first round draft pick, taken at a time when the Buffalo Sabres were not very deep at the center position, now three years later, the exact opposite is true, and Mikhail Grigorenko finds himself thrust down the depth chart, and seemingly on the outskirts of the Buffalo Sabres plan for the future.

Heading into next season, the Buffalo Sabres will have Sam Reinhart and Jack Eichel, seemingly ready to make the NHL jump.
