Hutton is the reason we didn't make the playoffs. Any other choices in mind who would take a short term deal?

Jets decline. Niku > pilut imo. Niku isn’t going to Europe, is younger, bigger and more aggressive, a better puck mover... etc

The only think pilut has on niku is d-zone coverage, which is somethjng niku needs to work on. However that can be taught, while what Niku has over pilut cannot at this stage imo.

Greiss, Khudobin, any other UFA goalie not named Jimmy zhoward.

Hutton is the reason the Sabres didn't make the play in round. They were closer to Ottawa than the regular platoffs....

He did lose 13 games in a row so you could say it was his fault

that's been buffalo's biggest problem. in 2018, carter hutton was the best goalie in the league through 25 games. that's why we won 10 in a row and were on top of the league through a quarter of the season. then the wheels fell off. in 2019, he was really good through a dozen games, we were 9-2 and then the wheels fell off. older goalies are better in the beginning of the year. so he needs to start this upcoming season, then be shelved quickly when it starts to get away. start him up, install ullmark when he breaks down, bury him in rochester, and maybe johansson after a start in the A will be ready to be the backup. then hutton can help UPL in rochester. short of signing someone, which i'm not opposed to, that's what i think the sabres should do.

He was better than Holtby this year and he will sign for a fraction of what Holtby and Hutton are signed at so if we can move Hutton. We can use the extra cap to address our other needs. There aren't many starting jobs available for Talbot to try and win. The Sabres would be a 1a, 1b scenario where if Ulmark struggles he would have that opportunity
