Just making it up to make a point. Maybe I should have gone 6 or 6.5.

Even the biggest VO fans here are hesitant to make a big commitment.

The predicted AAV on a 7 year deal for Olofsson by Evolving Hockey is $5.6M per.

One of the biggest question marks heading into the Sabres offseason will be what will the goaltending situation look like. One name being mentioned by Adams for goalie is Craig Anderson. “Craig gave us a chance to win when he was in net. He gave our team confidence.” Adams also reiterated that the team is in on every trade conversation and stated that the Sabres believe in a plan they have internally when it comes to goalie.

That is way too long to someone who will be a complimentary player when we are contending

Longest I would go on Olofsson is 4 or 5yrs. Don't see why we can't be in the playoffs in 2

I think the team would prefer 3, if they keep him around.

The team management seems to prefer a contract of no length as they seem concerned with a potential arbitration ruling.

I know I'm not VO's biggest fan, but even I never brought up concern about his arb ruling. Hearing that really caught my attention in several ways.

No argument here. Like his writing, he's great on camera, and he knows his prospects. Guess he just likes to keep it as his hobby.

mateychuk at 24 in mckenize's rankings was nuts. Id trade up a bit from 28 if that happened.
