For Bobby Sharp most of this offseason was staying the course. Sharp has been growing as a strong counter-attacking forward that's bringing both a solid defensive and offensive game. Most of his efforts this off season had him focusing on that so that management and coaches at Buffalo could utilize him in potentially all facets of play - 5 on 5, PK, PP, final minutes time, you name it. Sharp's training regiment had him focusing on both his brains and his brawn. Hours of tape was reviewed to better hohne his read of the game. Sharp also had a very intensive strength training regiment to add some muscle to his body. The hope his he'll be stronger on the puck and have a better eye for where it needs to go when he has it and where it's going when he doesn't. Coming off a Gold medal win with team USA over the off season, Sharp has is eye on his second cup win this SHL season.
