Kotalik gets second chance with Sabres

''I would lie if I would say I wasn't surprised,'' Kotalik said this week as the Sabres opened training camp. ''It's exciting, coming back here and seeing all of the guys and all of the people in this organization where I grew up and where...

Kotalik happy to be back with Sabres
Ales Kotalik had just about had enough. Two seasons of pain and disappointing play were leading to a demotion from the NHL. The thought of returning to the American Hockey League after nine years away from the minors had the winger thinking he should go home to Europe instead.
Kotalik ultimately decided to accept January's demotion to the Calgary Flames' affiliate of Abbotsford...

Ales Kotalik: The Forgotten Dodged Bullet
105 mph slapper & nothing else
The Flames put Ales Kotalik on waivers for the second time this season and it got me thinking, "praise the Sather".

Kotalik Update
From Andrew Gross at Ranger Rants:
Haven’t heard back from Ales Kotalik’s agent, Larry Kelly, but it’s becoming clear that one of the hold-ups to this deal, if not the main one, is Kotalik taking his time weighing his options as he has a limited no-trade clause in his three-year, $9 million deal.
