Worse then letting go BOTH captains?

That is old news. I’m looking ahead.

For all of you who want Souray.
5-6 million for ONE good season and a -28?
No effing way. Souray would be the worst move Buffalo could make.
edit- They signed Mair yesterday, at least.

lol, are you serious?
He is a power play specialist and that’s all. You’d be okay with Buffalo paying him 5 million+ to score 19 goals on the powerplay, even though he’s a 4th or 5th defenseman?
seriously i’d take souray for 10 min a game on PP than anyone else right now
miller can stop the puck let him
How many buffalo captains have gone on to win the lords cup? anyone have that fact?

not briere… since he accounts for 1/5th of phillies cap right now… and drury already won one… although with gomez i think the rangers have a nice shot at it…

montreal had one of the best last year… souray was a large part of that… I’m all for souray being a sabre regardless what pass my dick up my ass says
On a side note, they are playing the best of Shredd and Ragan from a while ago and they are talking to Chris Drury. Pretty ironic.

Souray for 10 minutes a game on the PP for 5 million.
or
Paestche (sp? jesus christ that is a hard name to figure out) for 25 minutes for less than 1 million.
Come on.

The front loaded contract doesn’t do anything to the cap space on the entire team. The average is 6.5, so he doesn’t account for quite that amount.

WE HAVE THE MONEY TO SPEND!! SO FUCKING SPEND IT
[/quote]
Idk man, there is a reason why the majority of Montreal fans DO NOT want the Canadiens to resign him.
If they wanted to waste a shitload of money on a crappy hockey player with a hard slapshot, they should pay Kotalik 5 million this season to play D. Because honestly, that’s about how bad of a defenseman Souray is.
They aren’t spending money.
That is clear already.
All the good FA’s are snatched up already.

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)

I agree. Taking it to extremes for example, based on what you are saying, you can pay someone to come play for you and pay them the first year 50 mil and 1 mil the next 9 years and it would only count for 5.9 mil a year on your salary cap?
briere is getting paid 10 mil - year one 8 mil 8 mil, 7mil 6mil 3mil 2 mil 2mil… or something like that so it is rather extreme… so i can’t imagine it just being the average,
