Johnny Hammersticks Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Maybe they can a 2nd rounder and a middling defenseman for him. Fart......your act is tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 @WGR550 Report: 2017 Hobey Baker winner Will Butcher will visit with the #Sabres. He becomes a UFA as of midnight tonight: http://www.wgr550.com/articles/news/report-butcher-visit-sabres This would be a nice get IMO. I think he has a damn good shot at being an NHL defenseman. Whether that's a bottom pairing offensive specialist type, or a legit top 4 guy I don't know. But he would surely bolster Buffalo's depth on defense, that's for sure. I'd be excited if Botterill and Housley can get this done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
