Are you saying that there is a danger in giving a player a long-term deal after only one good season? Who knew?
Cozens, UPL, Samuelsson, Power; I seem to be spotting a trend. The Sabres have 6 long term contracts, 5 were given out after the player's "break out year." Only TNT's is marginally working out. Dahlin's was after a success bridge deal. Maybe, just maybe Adams' strategy isn't the smartest way to handle guaranteed contracts.
