The Buffalo Sabres were reportedly one of the final two teams being considered by free agent winger Patrick Kane.
He chose a return to the Chicago Blackhawks, though, and so the Sabres are left as the runner-up with no prize to show for it.
Kane is originally from Buffalo, so there was hoped to be some pull there, but apparently the NHL familiarity of the Blackhawks won out.
That leaves the Sabres maybe one player short from what they hoped to achieve this offseason.
