The Buffalo Sabres were expected to take their next step in the rebuild this season and show some real signs of improvement, however, this isn't turning out to be the season the Sabres had hoped for.
The team currently sits near the bottom of the Atlantic division, with a 10-13-2 record. They have lost three straight, and 4 of their last 5 games. Dylan Cozens, one of the Sabres leaders, shared his unfiltered thoughts with how he thinks the team is playing, saying that he thinks they are too soft.
The Sabres have struggled without their key forward Tage Thompson, who has been out with an injury and only played in 16 of the Sabres games this season. In those 16 games, Thompson has recorded 12 points.
The Sabres are expecting an update on Thompson's injury status later today, and good news could mean they have an opportunity to make something out of their season still.
