26CornerBlitz Posted July 6, 2018 Author Posted July 6, 2018 Looks like Eichel will be #9 in the Sabres' lineup.

Eichel needs to have a good year. Is he feeling the pressure? Time to be THE leader Jack, a better change to the jersey would have been to earn and add a C. 1

njbuff Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 The Karlsson saga is stalling the off-season. Get it done already.

Yes, the team itself was so poorly constructed and so disinterested in playing hockey last season, you can't even really judge Phil Housley's performance. For all we know he is one of the best young coaches in the NHL. How would you know otherwise? Hard to overstate how dysfunctional this squad was last season. It all falls on the players, not the coach, IMO. 2

It all falls on the players, not the coach, IMO. You bring up a terrific point about the importance of properly constructing a team. It's simply not just about collecting talent (although there was a dearth of it) but more importantly adding talent that meshes together. So far the Sabres have not been able to construct a line where Jack's line mates can keep up and mesh with him. It seems that Botterill has brought in some speed skaters who can better keep pace with him. It is evident that Botterill was determined to reshape the roster and alter the chemistry. Last year, he was in an assessment mode. This year he was in the action mode of transforming a sluggish roster into a more energetic and passionate roster.
