The Buffalo Sabres’ 0-3 start has fans already pushing the panic button. The offseason moves by Kevyn Adams have done little to boost the team’s overall ability to compete.
The biggest offseason faux pas was jettisoning JJ Peterka to the Utah Mammoth. Now, you can’t blame Peterka, as he was adamant about this unwillingness to remain in Buffalo. We won’t question his motives, but we will state his reasons.
Beyond that, the Sabres didn’t really do much to address scoring. The signing of Bowen Byram was a good move, but he wasn’t an addition.
