Description

If Johnson is as good as Samuelsson, Buffalo's defense would be set until 2032.
There should be sufficient cap to sign Quinn and Peterka the following year.
Maybe Dahlin and Power get more, I cannot predict, but IMO both Thompson and Samuelsson signed very friendly contracts.
Buffalo needs to sign more players who WANT to play here and are willing to sign for a bit less, just as Marchand, Bergeron Pasternak etc do in Boston

At the end of the 2425 season Chychrun signs with the Sabres.

Johnson and Levi are wild cards.
If the Sabres can sign them, the sun will shine on Buffalo for the next 10 years.
Savoie, Kulich, Östlund, Rosén and Kisakov certainly give Buffalo a lot of options for the future.

You called it on Dahlin, he probably gets more in the $11m range. But other than that, I think it looks great. No idea what Power would get, thinking he'll get closer to 9 if they can pull it off. Excited for future
