"But it also makes four straight years of Gibson falling below average relative to his workload, which can be a red flag. It’s a far cry from the heights of his career when he saved upward of 24 goals above expectation per year between 2016-17 and 2018-19."

A wing and a (frank)ing prayer. That contract has disaster potential.

Gibson GAR last 3 years:

10.3
9
1.4

It's not elite but it's considerably better than what the Sabres have gotten.

I'd absolutely take him.

Floyd's contract doesn't seem to be right, or the numbers I saw where wrong on him. Definitely take these numbers.

WGR: Ed Oliver very happy he's re-signed with Bills
Bills fans: We wish Beane had traded you for a receiver like Jerry Jeudy, or for a veteran defensive end.

EH projection 0% chance at 8 years, however if that came to be, estimated cost was 6.63M.

-9.92, -3.94, -4.36, -2.31. Past 4 years GSAx

Gibson and Saros faced the most Fenwick Shots Against last season. Goals, saved shots and missed shots.

Saros came out at 45.49 GSAx. John was -2.31.

Jersey gets 80th OA for wrapping this baby up before UFA. Nice piece of business.

I would’ve done that trade. Decent cap it players wise and cheap price

3rd round picks have less than a 33% chance of ever playing an nhl game. I would gladly give that up for a defensemen like that

Maybe he lost his love of the game

I agree he is not the best move they can make but I think it's at least a serious move and he'd absolutely be an improvement over UPL

For this team I'm not giving him that contract. He was always gonna be one of the big boys that got the bag. A lot of Sabre mocks didn't even include him in their mock offseasons. Now I can see why.

He's a good player but he's not 8x6.25 good.

Phew, that's bullet dodge. I wanted Severson but good on him for finding someone to pay him for 8 years. He'll be 36 when that contract ends, but he may very well start ramping down in a couple years already at 30. Yikes.

As long as washedup thinks so. Otherwise, it's just another in a long line of bad contracts that the Sabres have given out over the last 12 years.

Samson's invisible, as expected.

Especially during the Stanley cup.
Love to see it.

(frank) i wouldn't even blame him.

I've softened *a little* on him, and I'm trying to consider how he's just been absolutely bombarded the past 2 years, while playing 109 games in that span. I think there's a small chance he rebounds a little bit, but for the term and money, that's a bad gamble to me.

I'd want an unreasonable trade of like Gibson and Luneau for Olofsson, Bryson and Comrie.
