There was one question that seemed to dominate the Buffalo Sabres offseason. It also was not answered the way many in the fanbase thought it should be. Bowen Byram was on the trade block and the subject of much speculation towards the end of last year and through all of free agency.
Despite taking many calls about the defenseman, the Sabres decided to bring the restricted free agent back by signing him a two-year extension. It seems as though rumors continue to swirl despite the re-signing.
He had a career best in points (38) and blocks (116) last season.
