Things are not well in Buffalo, NY, and it doesn’t appear to be getting any better. The embattled Buffalo Sabres are in the throes of yet another rebuilding season, and there appears to be no end in sight.
Where they left off
2021 was a tough pill to swallow for Sabres fans. The team went 15-34-7 in the 56-game shortened season and finished 31st out of 31 teams. In other words, dead last.
What’s sadder is that the team’s best player, Jack Eichel, wants out, and he’s airing his grievances publicly. Our friends at Die By The Blade are following the entire Eichel saga here, but the bottom line is Eichel doesn’t like the Sabres’ plans for his health.
