Pay attention to what happens to the Buffalo Sabres today.
Watch what happens when you DONT negotiate to extend your best players deal and you allow them to hit the open market.
The lowball, last minute contract offers to Briere and Drury were a slap in the face to both of them. Briere's all-star game MVP and career best 95 points werent even good enough to be offered a pay raise. Drury is one of the clutchest players in the entire NHL-- and he got offered a contract everyone knows will get blown away by another team.
By the way, the salary cap went up to $50.3 million, and the Sabres pretty much have a waiting list for season tickets now. SO whats the excuse?
Point being- say goodbye to our two best players in the next few hours.
I dont want him to be the next Bills owner anymore than I want Wilson currently owning it.
