A new season means a new opportunity for Buffalo Sabres winger Matt Moulson.
The 32-year-old is coming off a career-worst campaign with the Sabres, playing in all but one game and finishing with just eight goals and 21 points.
Despite the miserable season, though, the three-time 30-goal scorer is set on reversing his fortunes this year.
"I definitely have a chip on my shoulder coming in to prove a lot of people wrong who maybe lost a little belief," Moulson told John Vogl of The Buffalo News.
Where Moulson fits in the Sabres' lineup is unclear, with the top-six winger slots likely filled by Tyler Ennis, Evander Kane, Sam Reinhart, and new addition Kyle Okposo. He may also need to earn back coach Dan Bylsma's trust, after seeing his ice time drop to 11:54 last season, down from 17:41 the year prior.
The veteran winger has three years remaining on his contract, carrying a $5-million annual cap hit.
