The 2015/16 season has come to a close and despite some growing pains, the Sabres served notice that this team is on the rise. After the tank debacle the season previous, the Sabres finished 4th in the Atlantic Division with a fine 43-32-7 record, 93 points. And despite just missing the playoffs, fans and experts alike predict a bright future for this franchise.
While many are quick to attribute the seasons improvement to the genius of the late Tim Murray, many of my players sincerely complimented my performance whenever possible publicly. I must admit, I've surrounded myself with a fine staff who really are the nuts and bolts when it comes to running this team, but I do feel a sense of pride, knowing my hockey instincts actually seem to be working for this club.
