This year was supposed to be the season. The Buffalo Sabres finally took a step forward. Fans expected the team to finally compete for a playoff spot after years of disappointment. That however has not been the case as once again the same respond themselves near the bottom of the Atlantic division.
Unfortunately for the Sabres their chase for the playoffs will become more difficult as today they were forced to remove Tage Thompson from the active roster for personal reasons.
Tage Thompson has been assigned to the non-roster list (personal).
Thompson missed last night's game against the Boston Bruins and will now be away from the team for an undetermined amount of time. Our thoughts for our to Thompson at this time.
