Sabres sign center Cody Eakin after Johan Larsson departs for Arizona

‘Eakin’s contract carries a $2.25 million average annual value, $850,000 more than Larsson received from Arizona, and provides the Sabres with an option at center behind Jack Eichel and Eric Staal.’

Sabres sign Brandon Montour to one-year contract, three others file for arbitration

‘Though Montour appeared to become more comfortable in Ralph Krueger’s system as the season progressed, he struggled defensively at even strength and did not ignite the second power-play unit the way former general manager Jason Botterill envisioned at the time of the trade.’

Inside the NHL: No-contact edict for OHL would not help Jack Quinn’s development

‘No body-checking in Canada’s top junior league? These aren’t 8-year-olds.’

Sabres re-sign Brandon Montour to one-year contract

‘“He’s someone the coaching staff really felt took a step last year as the season went on,” Sabres general manager Kevyn Adams said on a conference call earlier this week.’

Reports: Sabres sign Cody Eakin to two-year contract

‘The 6-foot, 190-pound Eakin gives the Sabres depth down the middle. He could pivot the third or fourth line as a replacement for Johan Larsson, who is close to signing a two-year contract with the Arizona Coyotes, according to Sportsnet.’

Reports: Former Sabre Johan Larsson signs two-year contract with Coyotes

‘Larsson enjoyed perhaps his best NHL season in 2019-20. The tenacious Swede entrenched himself between Girgensons and Kyle Okposo early in campaign, helping the trio morph into one of the league’s best checking lines.’

Flashback: Meet Joe Daley, the maskless Sabres goalie

‘“(I) didn’t think it altered the way I played,” he said. “I certainly didn’t go into games thinking about, ‘What if I get a bad shot in the head?’ or anything like that. That just didn’t seem to be part of my makeup at the time.”’

Sabres and Montour come to terms on one-year contract

‘Montour could have been the fourth Sabres player to file for arbitration on Saturday along with forwards Sam Reinhart and Victor Olofsson, as well as goalie Linus Ullmark. However, he has signed a new one-year deal worth $3.85 million.’

Report: Sabres sign Eakin to two-year deal

‘Standing at 6-foot and 183 pounds, Eakin is a strong two-way presence down the middle who can be a solid third- or fourth-line center. He does not have a high offensive upside, but he can be a solid penalty killer and useful in the defensive end.’

Sabres bring back Montour on one-year, $3.85M deal

‘He also led all Sabres, regardless of position, in plus-minus last season (+13). At 26 years old, this was his final off-season as a restricted free agent.’
