The Los Angeles Kings were hoping they could land a defender who had been involved in trade rumors for weeks, but unfortunately, he re-signed with the Buffalo Sabres, the team announced on Monday (Jul. 14).
Bowen Byram, a 24-year-old defender, scored seven goals and added 31 assists for 38 points through 82 games with the Sabres last season. Throughout his career, he has scored 33 goals and added 77 assists for 110 points through 246 games, which comes out to a 0.45 points-per-game average.
