Believe it or not, we’re less than a month out from preseason games getting underway for the Buffalo Sabres. This summer has been full of changes as Jason Botterill promised would be the case back in the middle of April.
Looking at the team today, you can easily see the improvement (on paper) to almost every area on the roster. The top-six, bottom-six, defense, and goaltending have all arguably seen upgrades. We’ll see if that can translate onto the ice starting in 40 days.
The area of the roster that I’ve watched undergo a transformation for the better this offseason is the depth on the club, more specifically, the bottom-six.
