    Sabres get big D Finley on 2 way deal



    The Buffalo Sabres announced Monday they have signed current Rochester Americans defenseman Joe Finley to a multi-year contract.

    The deal is a two-way contract for
    a reported three-years, $1.575 million.

    The 6-foot-8, 250 lb. defenseman accepted an
    invitation to Sabres tryouts in September. After making the cut, he was assigned to Rochester.

    Myers is 6'9" and Finley is 6'8"

    I really like this part...


    What Sabres fans may be most excited for is: in a
    game against Hamilton, prospect Marcus Foligno was hip checked hard into the boards. Foligno stood up to fight, but Finley already had the gloves dropped, his helmet off and the crowd on their feet.

    If Sabres fans want someone to step up and be
    physical, Finley's your guy. He leads the AHL in penalty minutes.

    Instant castration at the last toll on the i90 for all Sabres players is mandated.

    Sabres are 6th overall in PMs, they drop the gloves, but take a ton of just plain dumb and undisciplined penalties, did I say I wanted a new coach yet?

    once lindy has him playing "the system", he'll be in the press box in no time while the likes of stafford, roy and leino can continue to flounder at will! Yeah.

    At least november games are over now. We can get on to hopefully a better month of december for buffalo sports.

    Man, imagine if this guy pans out, Lindy says he skates just as good as Myers, he was a first round pick but didn't make it because of injures. This defense would be scary.
