nfreeman Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Never mind -- looks like the backup will be Neuvirth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Neuvirth and Enroth, welcome to Purgatory kids! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKnowPhysics Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 John Vogl @BuffNewsVogl  Goalie Michal Neuvirth is heading back to the Sabres in the Jaroslav Halak deal.  I'm fine with that. Halak wasn't worth ###### in this stupid goalie market. Now we have another year to decide between Enroth and Neuvirth. Good stall move.

Hoss Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Neuvirth is a guy I can stand having as a backup  So does Hackett come up for the rest of the season? Or is the other guy?  Neuvirth will be the backup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwksndmonster Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 That gives us 2 young netminders with upside, at the very least. Not a bad way to start goalie purgatory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson's Flow Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Neuvirth is a $2.5M cap hit and is a UFA after 2014-2015. Gives us a backup/starter and gives you a chance to flip him again next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreeman Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 FWIW, Neuvirth's contract runs through next season. He'll make $2.6MM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trettioåtta Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Good trade. Nuevirth has another year on his deal and him and Enroth can split duties for next year. Big fan of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFIVEOH Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I don't want somebody to come in and compete for the #1 spot. I want Enroth in 60-65 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobody Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I've always like Neuvirth; so I'm happy with the swap. Has the current ideal size for a goalie. Decent save percentage. Signed for next season. Sabres set for next season in net on the quest for McDavid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
