Short Take Sports:

Sabres fall below expectations

I thought they’d miss by 1. Now they have 3 meaningless games to play. My bet: They replace the assistants. The Top 6 is Benson, Thompson, Tuch; then Cozens, Quinn, Peterka; they add a couple vet grinder types for the 4th line; Skinner, Krebs and the best from Roch becomes Line 3; D pairs are Dahlin/Byram; Power/Samuelsson and Johnson/Clifton. Bryson is D 7. Jokiharju gets dumped for a low forward.

At least they have goalies. https://www.audacy.com/wgr550/sports/sabres/sabres-playoff-hopes-officially-end-with-loss-to-dallas

The home spin

They battled, just not hard enough.

Bills add depth tackle

La’el Collins didn’t play last year but he has a boatload of career starts. https://www.audacy.com/wgr550/sports/bills/reports-bills-sign-offensive…
