After a little back reading and deciding to skip the rest when it comes to Lehner:

The Sabres get to pick the term when it comes to arbitration. Meaning they will elect for the 1 year deal so when that contract expires Lehner is still a RFA and they control his rights.

If it is a 2 year deal that would take him to UFA status. If the Sabres are unsure of what they have in him there is no way they don't do a 1 year deal. My guess is that is what is holding up his contract to begin with.

I still think he gets between $4.5-$5.5 in arbitration but I wouldn't be surprised if it is in the $5.5-$6 million range.

1 year prove it deal, sink or swim.

pommer
gionta


great depth, if injury happens each can slide up a line

If he really wants 2 years, he's likely going to have to come down on salary (celery). Not by a significant margin, but maybe from $5 to $4.5.

This is what I have been saying all along. Why give him 2 years and risk UFA? Give him 1, see how he does, if he kicks ass then we have exclusive negotiation rights for a LTD. If we sign him 2 years, he is a pending UFA, he kicks ass we will absolutely get out bid by someone else. Makes way more sense to sign him to one year. I don't want to pay him more than 4.5-5 but if he is awarded 6 so be it for 1 year.

I think when we got Pomminville that sealed Gionta's fate. He knew it the minute that hit the wire. If someone said this already sorry

Peel and cube two large cucumbers
Slice thin 1/2 a purple onion
1 Tablespoon kosher sale
1.5 cups Mayonnaise (Hellman's, for christ's sake, you (frank)ing heathens)
2 Tablespoons vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
garlic, dill, and pepper to taste


Put the cuke cubes in a pasta drainer and sprinkle on the salt - let it rest for an hour or so in the sink - this will draw out much of the excess liquid.
Afterwards, in a large bowl, mix it all together and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.

SUMMER CUCUMBER SALAD! <--------- This is some serious business.
