After sitting out the entire 2015-16 season due to a blood clot issue, Buffalo Sabres forward Cody McCormick will be forced to retire, general manager Tim Murray told reporters during a season-ending press conference.
Murray did indicate that though his playing career is over, the 32-year-old may have a role within the organization, according to Paul Hamilton of WGR.
McCormick played parts of five seasons with the Sabres. Over his 10-year career, he recorded 21 goals and 44 assists in 405 career games.
He still has one year remaining on his contract.
