St Louis fans will say this is too little, Buffalo fans will say its way too much. If the Blues move Parayko I feel like this is around what it would take.

Parayko too much money too much term for what I would gamble with at this point. Rather have someone that contract ends sooner or more tradeable term

Agreed - taking on a 30 year old that has 7 more years of a $6.5M cap hit is not how the Sabres operate. It would guarantee them being stuck with a player that they'd be forced to buy out halfway through the deal.

Deal but every Sabres fan that says Parayko would be horrible for you has the IQ of a lamp

The contract would be horrible for us.

Quoting: SKWPG

Helly just turned 30 12 days ago. Thinking 6 years at $8M. That way he's the starter for 2 or 3 years and then moves to back up like Goalie Bob has done.

Can’t see the Sabres wanting to pay a “backup” $8mil for 5ish years though
