So, the St. Louis Blues may have inadvertently helped the Buffalo Sabres restock. With the haul the Sabres got in return for Ryan O’Reilly, they already had quite a different team. Now, after August 2nd’s big deal, the Sabres are no longer a laughing stock of the Eastern Conference.
In case you missed it, the Sabres picked up Jeff Skinner in a trade with the Carolina Hurricanes. The Hurricanes got prospect Cliff Pu and some draft picks.
Clearly, most fans will feel the Sabres got the better of that deal.
