BUFFALO, NY. (WKBW) — As the Buffalo Sabres' season comes to a close, arguably the biggest storyline surrounding this team heading into the offseason is the future of Alex Tuch in Buffalo.
Tuch spoke with reporters on Wednesday and made it clear he would like to explore the possibility of staying in Buffalo, but also added that his decision on where he signs boils down to a lot of factors.
"I don't know the future, but my main priority is my family," Tuch said. "I don't really know anything until everything is laid out in front of you. So I'm going to take some time in the next few weeks to really figure it out and see how it goes."
