Ullmark with 48 saves and Cozens with the game winning goal. I know it’s been forever but I think the Sabres may be turning the corner!

Take a look at the 2020 - 2021 Sabres roster. Eichel, Reinhart, Thompson up front, Dahlin, Risto, McCabe, Montaur backline, Ullmark and UPL in goal. Tell me that if that team stayed together with some tweaks, it would be at a minimum a playoff team, maybe a legitimate Cup contender. (I know, dozens of reasons that didn’t happen). Moral of the story? There shouldn’t be anything done with this roster going into next year other than some tweaks - re-sign Zucker and Greenway, dump Mattias, Joker and Bryson, for God’s sake find a veteran, physical RHD to pair with Power, if possible find a vet playmaking center, move Cozens to wing, give Cozens and Quinn next year to show they are viable NHL’ers.

Waive him and let him play in Rochester. Nobody in their right mind is going to claim him and if they do, problem solved. Get a bad contract off the books without a buyout.
