The guy scored better than .5 points per game while being an enforcer in juniors, so not terrible.  He might have a successful minor league career and could be called up for certain games where there are "issues" with an opponent.

It’s an AHL contract so he can’t be called up. He’d have to sign a new deal with Buffalo.

About time. They should always have a couple of those big boys down there to protect the kids. AHL can be a rougher league than the NHL with some of the hacks in it. 

More Lindy influence?   Seems like they would (and should) know this already.

I hope it is Lindy influence.  Otherwise I don’t trust anybody in the Sabres organization to have realized this need on their own.  They thought they could win with just “finesse” and sadly would still be soft without Ruff.

I think so. I wouldn't be surprised if the conversation went along these lines:

Lindy - "why don't you have any tough guys drafted and playing in Rochester?"

Adams - "they weren't BPA"

Lindy - "well get a guy or two in there and then when we draft them they can take that spot, we need them"

Adams - "okay I guess"

(Pegula - "I don't like this but do what Lindy wants Kev")

Because Lindy knows, like it or not, this is still a thing we will have to deal with:
