‘Naturally, it is important to note Botterill’s past relationships, particularly those in Pittsburgh’s organization. That makes Jacques Martin a possibility for Buffalo. Martin, 56, has spent the past four seasons as an assistant with the Penguins, including back-to-back Stanley Cup championships, and had a 15-year career as an NHL coach. Additionally, Sabres assistant general manager Randy Sexton worked under Martin in Florida, and Martin has a long history of working with young players. He also could be a candidate to return to Ottawa.’
