In a move that could send shockwaves through the NHL, sources close to the Buffalo Sabres have revealed that star forwards Kyle Okposo's linemates, Casey Mittelstadt and the recently acquired Anders Bjork are not the only players looking to shake up their roles on the team. Reportedly, forwards Sam Reinhart and Victor Olofsson's linemates, William Nylander and Jeff Skinner are not the only players who are looking to make changes. However, it's the duo of Jeff Skinner's linemate, and the other star forward, Victor Olofsson's linemate, that are reportedly looking to make the biggest changes. According to insiders, both Nylander and Mittelstadt, along with Okposo's other linemate, have reportedly asked for major changes to the team's dynamics and are looking to take on more leadership roles within the team. This comes after a disappointing playoff run for the Sabres, and it's clear that Nylander and Mittelstadt are looking to take their careers to the next level. The future of the team's top forwards is now in question, and fans are eagerly awaiting the Sabres' next move.
