X. Benedict Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 I'm not saying Darcy didn't do well in the trade -- he did much better than I was expecting. I'm just saying that salary inflation seems to be continuing, and that there is likely a "halo effect" for Sabres free agents that is at work as well. Since we've got a few guys (can't remember who) due for free agency this summer... I see what your saying, I just don't think it indicates much in terms of salary inflation. They are going with him as a #1, he's a veteran, and he would probably have taken a 4 yr. deal under 11 mil. Because it is only 2 yrs, I think they are paying a premium.

Larry Playfair Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 This extension makes it worth it for them to have given up their 2nd. Good luck Marty. Philly has a ton fo cap room to spend, so well see. But 2007 is our year! Go Sabes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
