The Buffalo Sabres’ offseason is well underway. With the NHL Scouting Combine in the books, the Stanley Cup Final underway between Boston and St. Louis, and the NHL Draft coming up soon, there’s still plenty to be done.
Obviously, for many Buffalo Sabres fans, the priority for the team is (or should be) re-signing Jeff Skinner. Reports indicate that the two sides are close, and it appears that a deal could be announced any time now. But what about once that’s done? The 2019-2020 NHL season is still months away, and the Sabres have other priorities that need to be taken care of this offseason, too.
