I said, regarding Gorges, Moulson, and Bogosian late last spring, that if those guys were in the roster in October 2017, the team was NOT serious about winning. 

They were - and the Sabres weren't - serious about winning that is -  it was officially a 'write off season';  that seemed to be the attitude from the highest levels of Sabres management all the way down to the locker rooms!  

Meanwhile, Vegas in the Stanley Cup finals.   Some teams DON'T feel years and seasons can be wasted, unlike the Sabres.  

I'll say the exact same thing about Lehner -  if he's wearing a Sabres uniform in October, consider it another write off year.

... Ya because Botterill sounds really satisfied with a "write off season"

Every time someone says look at Vegas I almost lose it. It's such a lazy argument and not based in reality. Look at what? A team that got to skip developing players by picking already developed players. Great fantastic.

Great thing about living in a country where no one knows hockey, don't have to hear the stupid arguments :D
