Casey Mittelstadt’s offensive production (or lack thereof) has been a major topic of conversation among Sabres fans as the team continues to search for an answer to their secondary scoring woes. As a player who came into the season with significant expectations as the future second-line center in Buffalo, he has struggled to make an impact, posting just 12 points in 43 games thus far. Prior to scoring against the New Jersey Devils last night, he had only produced one goal in his last 19 games.
The situation has a lot of moving parts.
