After acquiring Eric Staal last week to fill their biggest need next season at second line center, the Buffalo Sabres will likely turn their focus to improving perhaps their next biggest need - goaltending.
It’s no secret the Sabres’ goalies as a whole were not up to par last season, and they will explore all options available to improve in that area. Linus Ullmark is a restricted free agent this offseason, and will need not only a new contract, but new a running mate as well. Carter Hutton is still under contract with the club for next season, but, repaired vision or not, his lackluster play leaves his status in the organization in doubt.
