Sabres sign Leopold

[gtown27]

Three-year deal according to Sabres text message.

Good deal, Leopold is a good dman.

 

[gtown27]

Heard it's under $2 mil per. I'm OK with that. Not satisfied, though. It looks as if it may just be the lone move on the blue line for Buffalo.

Let's just hope, A: they add someone significant up front and B: Weber and Gragnani really step up

Leopold will be a decent replacement for Tallinder after he departed. Leopold didn't get a fair shake in the burgh. If Sutton doesn't clean his clock in the first round, I just wonder how much more of an impact he'd have made against the Habs. It certainly hurt his value with the time that he spent out of action. I bet he'll fit in nicely for the sabres.

Yeah, the same amount we could of got Lydman for.

Go figure. I guess the Sabres want new blood to shake things up?

It's a little steep. 7.5 would have been a little more reasonable. But, hey Buff can spend it, right?

 

[IPostedWhat]

Catscrap are you in Buffalo?

If you listened to WGR550 earlier today, they released the amount around 5:00pm today.

GOD DAMN YOU REGIER. why the hell would you do that. Seriously. You think Leopold is worth 3 million a year. What the fuck were you thinking. If he's worth 3 million a year then Gonchar and Versteeg and all them were a steal at what they went for. You fucking moron get your head out of your ass and realize your decisions have reactions to them. What happens in 2 years when Myers needs resigned now? You gonna have the money to do it? You better you piss ant son of a bitch.

 

[CatScrap]

Thats it. I'm going to bed after I get drunk. I really have lost faith in this organization. We wasted 3 million for the next 3 years. Does it surprise me? No. But I am frustrated as hell....
Fucking sabres.

What would you rather have?

Lydman at 3 years, 3 mil per, or Leopold?

 

[pixburgher66]

i mean, that's pricey, but i think you'll be pleasantly surprised by leopold. solid guy, doesn't make mistakes often, etc.

 

[CatScrap]

What would you rather have?

Lydman at 3 years, 3 mil per, or Leopold?

Neither. horrible signing. 3 year 6 million for leopold, even 7 million would be ok. But 3 year 9 million is horrible. You really think he's worth 3 mil a season when versteeg is worth 4.25?

 

[IPostedWhat]

The Ducks gave Lydman about the same deal, so why not Leopold?

 

[CatScrap]

2 things.
ONE Boss is gonna flip when he finds out the leopold numbers if he doesn't already know.
TWO I'm heading out. Peace to all my fellow hockey fans. Remember, even if your team sucks one year, or always, if your a hockey fan theres always something to look forward to every season. NIGHT PEEPS!!!
