Its Just Who the Sabres Are


The past few years with the contract problem with McKee, Drury, Briere, Campbell (the list goes on) it became apparent that signing players long term is not how the Sabres do things. We keep signing young talent and hope that we can hit it big for a year or two.


This year the Sabres decided to restock their AHL team with six different players.


Tim Kennedy

Dennis Persson

Chris Butler

Nathan Gerbe

Felix Schutz

Jhonas Enroth


The Sabres have 2 to 3 years with these players to see if they can get lucky and make a run to the Cup like the Pens did this year.


The only problem with a young team is that they lack in experience. If the Sabres keep this style of combing for the best young talent to keep up their roster, we will be in the playoffs for years but will never really come up big.
