Mathieu Darche signs with Sabres

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

Ex-Syracuse Crunch forward Mathieu Darche has agreed to a one-year, two-way deal with the Buffalo Sabres.


Darche, who played for Tampa Bay last season, was deciding between offers from Buffalo and Ottawa. He said Columbus did not enter the bidding.

"I figured that's where I'll have a good chance,'' he said of the Sabres. "Lindy Ruff is a lot like (ex-Tampa Bay coach) John Tortorella. You get what you deserve. I decided the fit was good in Buffalo, and I liked the talk I had with (Sabres GM) Darcy Regier.''

no, it's something they refused to do for Rochester because they were trying to save money for a bit.
