Bogosian didnt have an extra year, he only lost out on a few months of higher pay. Johansen would sacrifice a couple months plus a whole extra year


To win a cup I would. Who cares for an extra 4m when u can get the chance to lift Lord Stanley then go get another deal

As teams love paying cup winners more than they worth these days

I mean BUFF potentially now has one of the scariest young Dcores in the NHL

Byram has slipped this year but next year if he gets back to form it could be scary.

I wonder if TOR can now call Buffalo on Byram or one of their young D

As they have so many now and with Byram being a lefty on top of Dahlin and Power things get interesting

Sure but there was a whole article about the advantages/disadvantages on that stuff. Basically to sum youn want these guys on their strong side with there being a few exceptions

For BUFF if thats the case Byram would be third pair

Byram is still a very young defender and was a top 5 pick for a reason. Only knock on him is his Concussion issues

Top end potential, he'll be a mid 2nd line center. Really suited for 3rd line.

That makes no sense for BUF what in the world
I get they need to move Mitts but for Byram? They have Power, Dahlin, Samuelsson on the left


both power and dahls can play RD.

True but then again a recent article talked about how the strong side should be the sticking point these days with a few exceptions

I think links on a VGK form or something now

Kinda in a spot where it was time to get paid but for whatever reason buffalo didn’t want to or he didn’t want to sign there. I think that combined with the sabres then wanting an nhler in return resulted in where this ended up.

I dunno that he has any on ice issues that caused this, just is time for term contract.

It's $8M. The retention would go away with his contract as well.

True but whats better winning a cup or 8m?

Lots of players can make money few can get a cup

Can always get that money later after winning cup as he can just go sign a few 3m deals. Bogo did something similar and it paid off for him.
