This is the caution about folks focussing on tanking for a superstar; if those superstars are not surrounded by other players that can help, it doesn't matter how good that player is. Edmonton under the nepotism and Chiarelli years is another example of this.

It's tough though with the Sabres.
I don't look at them top to bottom and think they're a terrible team.
They have alot of young talent. They have some decent veteran role players. They're not as thin as the sharks or blackhawks atleast.
Overall I think they just skew too young and don't have guys properly slotted.
It's probably not a good idea to have your bottom 6 filled with young guys like Krebs, Cozens, Benson and Quinn.
They also seem to have terrible defensive structure.
