Now, that we’re in the second week of July, the news around the Buffalo Sabres and NHL will start to subside. Jason Botterill had a busy offseason over the last few weeks retooling his roster.

This offseason the Sabres took on some salary in both the Conor Sheary and Ryan O’Reilly trades. Cap space is becoming an important asset in today’s NHL.
