  1. Well, maybe he didn't before, but it does seem that the last 1 year deal brought to Sam by Adams last October was the last straw in a long line of bridge deals. I think Sam would have committed long term after his ELC, or after a first 2 year bridge. Where did you hear Sam wants $9M?
  2. A lot of those 'centres' are not really centres, but anyway ... Stepan (??), Danault (yes, please). Goalers ... Anderson and I assume Linus is signed.
  3. I really do not understand the level of upsetness over the condition on the pick. It was very unlikely to be top 10.
  4. Sorry, my friend, No!! Just no.
  5. I know you didn't ask me, but ... yes, I do. I suspect his hands were tied by Sam. A pending UFA will not get more at the deadline.
  6. He does look good. Take it nice and slow with his development and we could have a real keeper here.
  7. Not a Russian ...
  8. Not a Russian ...
  9. The condition is not a real issue. It will not be top 10, well extremely unlikely anyway. They obviously think very highly of Levi. He showed well in the WJC. I do believe that the Sabres hands were tied and Sam told them I will sign in a year with either Vancouver, or Seattle, when I am UFA. Sam was jerked around by the Sabres, IMO.
  10. He is a good player and he is playing for his first UFA contract at that time. I don't think his mind flipped either. I think he stated this much even at the start of last season. I think he was pissed with all the bridge deal stuff too.
  11. No 's' ... Why? It is now very clear that Sam had given up on the Sabres and told them I want out as soon as possible, but I want my full UFA rights in another year to sign in Vancouver, or Seatlle.
  12. Quoting myself ... someone has to, eh ... Thinking about this more ... I think he wants to sign with either Vancouver, or Seattle, in UFA.
  13. Can we get the thread title changed to something more definitive? Thanks.
  14. There has to be something more to this ... like Samson said he would not sign long term with any team right now and wants to test the market in a year. Maybe the return is so little that there is a background deal that Sam will sign with the Sabres long term in a year. There as to be something like that.
  15. They must really think the Levi kid is the real deal. He looks promising, but at 19 he won't play for the Sabres for another 3+ years.
  16. I believe this is the reason why the Seth Jones trade was finalized before the draft. An expension needed to be worked out, but still can't be signed officially until Wednesday ... UFA day.
