Kotalik signed for 3 years

[Crisis]

Discuss.

What I'd like to discuss is how many years the deal is for. "Multi-year" deal doesn't tell me crap. For what Darcy usually gives out, 2 years could be "multi-year" or "long-term".

Where did you see the 3 year figure?

No details there...

I read the Sabres.com article, too, and noticed they had no information about the length. :confused:

He gets 3 years and Briere doesnt??? :shakeno:

Briere wanted 5.

Well, at least we dont have to worry about him getting a ridiculous offer. :bf1:

either way, now the front office is panicing and signing players to deals they never offered, example, Kotalik... he made less than 1 mill last season, they just threw a 3 year contract starting at 2 million at him to get him to sign before arbitration, which they woulda gave him prolly 3 or 4 million,

watch Max be next, or maybe Connolly.

This is a good signing and at least keeps a nother componenent in place

my honest opinion,

Kotalik, Max, and JP are gone.... that would account for about 12 million a year... maybe more..
