Botterill talks coaching search, scouting and more on 'Instigators'

Source: Sabres.com

‘”Let’s be honest, there is an element of luck but there also needs to be a structure to it,” he said. “That’s why I think it’s so key, finding certain elements in the character aspect. Because the bottom line is, you’re picking a player when they’re 17 or 18, they’re not a finished product. There’s so much for them to do. Their drive off the ice, their willingness to improve their game in the weight room or on the ice. These are key attributes and we’ve always stressed in Pittsburgh, the importance of character and really trying to do your due diligence on guys.’
