Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman says it was his fault that the Rasmus Dahlin trade rumor emerged, which scared Sabres fans

Sabres captain Rasmus Dahlin and general manager Kevyn Adams had an hour-long meeting to discuss the state of the team ahead of the NHL trade deadline. On Tuesday morning, Paul Bissonnette said on the Spittin’ Chiclets podcast that Dahlin told Adams if things don’t change quickly he’s going to want out of Buffalo.

Buffalo has missed the playoffs for an NHL-record 13 consecutive seasons, and with the team sitting at the very bottom of the Eastern Conference, that will extend to 14 consecutive seasons very soon.
