from Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News,

With his team rapidly free-falling out of the playoff race, Buffalo Sabres general manager Jason Botterill said today he is not considering a coaching change and his focus remains on developing players on his roster to perform more consistently.

In a 10-minute chat with reporters from The Buffalo News, the Athletic and WGR Radio during practice in Amalie Arena, Botterill flatly said "no" when asked if replacing coach Phil Housley is on his agenda.

"We've made progress as an organization compared to last year. We've been in a position where we've been in games," Botterill said. "I see the results on the ice. I see the communication we're going through here. There's not going to be a coaching change."
