‘Hall said that there were multi-year deals on the table from other teams, but after he talked with teams, he realized that COVID-19 is affecting what teams do and that maybe a six or seven-year deal wouldn’t be such a good idea this year.

He said one and two-year deals were on the table from the Sabres.’
