‘There were times in the draft where the Sabres had their eye on a forward, only to have him taken before them, therefor they took five defensemen. Botterill isn’t worried about it, “You can never have too many defensemen and it’s a scenario where we did talk a lot about trying to add some more defensemen, but we looked at different things throughout the last couple of days and there were some good forwards where we were looking to add to our group, it didn’t materialize.”’
