I wish you well, Zach Bogosian.
Thanks for always taking time out to talk with me about the team in good times and in bad.
You have cleared unconditional waivers and are now a free agent after your contract was terminated by Jason Botterill and the Buffalo Sabres.
You are now free to sign with any team in the NHL. However, your agent must get you signed to a new NHL club by 3:00 pm on Monday for you to be eligible to play in the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs.
You are only 29 years old and are finally healthy. The darkest of days are behind you now.
You have chosen to leave the remaining slice of 2019-20 salary on the table in exchange for your freedom. Your wish has been granted.
Last week, when the Sabres placed you on waivers with the intent of sending you to the Amerks, you opted to not report, which resulted in your suspension by the Sabres and eventual shredding of your contract.
The Evander trade to Buffalo seems like ancient history today, doesn't it?
Contrary to the negative narratives floating around the internet about you, there are several NHL clubs interested in signing you as a free agent at the NHL trade deadline. The teams include Vegas, Winnipeg, Calgary, Toronto, and Tampa.
Can you imagine how triggered Sabres fans will be if you signing with the Maple Leafs?
