The Buffalo Sabres finished dead last in the NHL in 2014-15 with a 23-51-8 record.
According to former Sabres goaltender Jhonas Enroth, the club’s only goal this past season was to finish at the bottom of the league in an effort to land coveted top prospect Connor McDavid.
“They had only one goal…The goal was to come last,” Enroth said (via Google Translate) of the Sabres’ abysmal season.

If the NHL finds conclusive evidence that the Sabres tanked to finish last, the NHL should hand down a drastic punishment. Take away Buffalo's first round picks for 2015, 16, and 17. They need to deter teams from doing this.
