The deep playoff run ended for the Erie Otters Friday following a 6-2 loss to the Oshawa Generals in Game 5 of the Rogers OHL Championship Series.
And so, for the first time since 2007, the Sabres will not have one of their prospects participating at the Memorial Cup, where the winners of the Ontario, Western and Quebec leagues do battle with the host team for the top prize in Canadian major-junior hockey.
Sabres forward prospect Nicholas Baptiste (2013, third round) logged a minus-3 rating in Friday's loss, leaving him with one goal and two assists in the final round, and totals of 12 goals and 23 points in 20 playoff contests.
