Yeah that Vlasic deal is going to be the new Seabrook deal in a few years. They also have Burns for 8 more years too
- chilliard77

Burns can always switch to forward if he slows down his skating due to age.

He isnt but still serviceable at that price tag.
- Larsson_fan

Anytime a guy has one bad season I'm willing to believe he could return to form.

So when the Wild come to Buffalo, will there be a video tribute for Enzo and Foligno? The game IS just before Thanksgiving. Will the Sabres give thanks for all the rockin' times we had with Tyler and Marcus?
- PrinceChill

Hope not

If Pouliot is the player from the three years previous to this season we will all be happy with the deal. 35 points from a guy making $1.15 million would be a welcome addition.
- Pierceme69

I'm not expecting much from him
Rather have had Colin Wilson for a 4th
Great trade for the AVs
I wonder why the Preds traded him?

Beezer called Hank
- Mentalorgasm5

I had Kane, just missed 1 player in the deal.

$7.1

unreal.

There was also some mind (frank)ery going on from the coach. Its not like he got poopty overnight, just an off year.

But still, a 40 year old forward making 8 mil? Yikes.

I'm a big Sharks fan but I think their window is closed

It's weird having July 1st on a weekend.

Cam Fowler's extension in ANA -- coming into effect next season -- expected to be 8 years with a $6.5M AAV

Jesus christ

I said a couple role players today and we got 1 maybe another coming
- SABRES 89

I wasn't expecting anything major
Maybe Vanek
But Puliot probably means he'll go somewhere else

Damn

The price for defensemen just went off the deep end. Thank god we signed Risto long term

💯 % Bubba....but there will be a new lock out to help the teams by then.

He's only 31 this season too. Hainsey to the Leafs per Lebrun.

Ron Hainsey's 2-yr deal with the Leafs is worth around $3 M per year

a couple people have tweeted that he doesnt have to
- Sabresfan-365

This year he doesn't...
pretty sure next year he will have to

I had Kane, just missed 1 player in the deal.
- SABRES 89

Buff39 takes credit for what others say. His tag wasn't even created for the Hank trade, but he called it....

I remember when Beezer called it. Not to mention buff39 has been wrong about Ennis, Girgensons and Foligno getting traded at the 15/16 deadline, Petersen going to Florida, Sabres drafting Chiqorin.

Sounds like it, cheap signing not bad.

Pretty big numbers, good thing he's young.

Yes, yes we've heard you. I like you having sources but the repeated chest pumping gets almost nagging like

He played well in the playoffs
Probably a 3rd pair guy for Toronto
Decent pickup I'd say

Defenceman Paul Postma going to BOS. One year, $725K.

Maybe, but Pouliot is a 3LW. We still have a hole at 2LW.

Sounds like it, cheap signing not bad.
- SABRES 89

Yeah
I don't have strong feelings one way or the other
