There was a little bit of give on both sides, probably more on our side than his side. More than anything this is an acknowledgement of the commitment by the ownership to make sure we get the key players signed to give us the best opportunity possible to have the best season we can, and it also acknowledges Miro as a very valuable player to this organization. I believe it makes him the second highest paid player in the history of the Sabres.”
