i really don’t think its based off the average… i think it has to do with what he will be paid that year… obviously philly thinks they can get breire when he is 34-36 for cheap and have their upcoming talent primed and ready to go for big contracts to spank the competition…
souray is a big guy, good in the corners, just lacks that one on one defensive ability… and Huet didn’t have the ability miller did to stop that threat.
The sabres key problem last year was the PP, I think they spark that… they can be much much more effective when it matters (the playoffs)
