Prize free agent?

The last player that is linked to the Buffalo Sabres is André Burakovsky. This is a name that a lot of fans have on their wishlist. He scored 22 goals and put up 39 assists in 80 games played with the Avalanche. If general manager Kevyn Adams were to sign Burkovsky, he would be a great addition to Buffalo’s top six.

Obviously, things can change in a blink of an eye. As of now, these players are all linked to the Sabres and it’s possible more names will be linked to them as we approach free agency. One thing is for sure, it’s going to be interesting to see what happens.
