Would have thought he would get a Liligren or Valimakki deal

Good for Bryson and a fine value deal for Buffalo. I really like his agility and his ability to evade pressure. He has room to grow and should really establish himself as a reliable 3rd pair guy in the NHL this season

Good bridge deal. Last year, Bryson played minutes that were too difficult for him; let's see if he gets an easier workload this time.

Good signing. Not to pinch pennies here but seems a little high. 1.2 to 1.5 seems about right for an RFA D in the 5 to 7 slots. Regardless glad he’s back

They gave him a little extra to give Sandin more fuel vs the Leafs.

They could have signed a bottom pair UFA for less. Hell, they probably could have signed one for league minimum and been just as good.

With Power and Samuelsson coming up next year he should fall into a nice consistent 3rd pairing role with regular PK2 time.

It will be a good fit for him

Are you aware of the fact that we're struggling to hand out enough money to reach the cap floor? Also, the people who signed for league min last year is like Matt Irwin, Andrej Sustr, and Jack Johnson. Without a single doubt in my mind, Bryson is better than all of them.
