Nice! No more depth D signings in Buffalo. Also, good price and good term. Solid.

Buffalo overpaid for him, but you have to overpay to keep anybody in Buffalo

Image didn't work but it shows he should be paid around 1.5 Million

Not resigning Larsson only to pay Eakin a lot more money is a terrible thing to do by Adams.

if he can get back to the form he had in vegas 2 years ago he'll be a steal.
I don't mind the signing. He at least has the speed to play the game.

2.25 mill are you kidding, this isnt economical in any capacity. Eakin should have gotten a league minimum contract

For 1 million more against the cap. Larsson didn't want to come back though

He's not really any good, I don't think he improves the Sabres much at all.

He's not good defensively, had only 15 points, and they paid him $2.25M for 2 seasons. That implementation of analytics is just a chalkboard that reads "Alex Pietrangelo or Super Yacht".

Tell him to sign Kahun before signing 4th liners. Also tell him to trade Montour for a competent forward

In isolation, this makes sense: protection against something happening to Staal, and a halfway (accent on the "half") decent #3C. But in the context of not signing Johan Larsson, it seems an odd choice. Maybe Adams went to lunch, came back and discovered that someone in his office had failed to respond to Larsson's agent, and is trying to make up for it?
