I totally agree with you that the Sabres and Skinner were negotiating during the course of the season. That I remember. What I don’t think exists is any evidence that the Sabres could have signed him earlier for cheaper, and specifically for $7M. I don’t know where you got that from.

I believe they paid UFA price beacuse they waited to long I can almost promise you guys probably had 7m or 8 during the season when "negotiating " the contract in January Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think there are any reports of that. If you have a hunch that is the case, that’s fine, I’m not to argue about your gut feeling. However, it doesn’t really carry any weight with me. Not like an actual report from any reputable media source would. If you have that, I’d love to see it. EDIT: Also, what’s an almost promise worth? Ask my ex-girlfriends.

FYI: I remember hearing $7M getting kicked around in the rumour mill. I do not recall anything from any major media or otherwise quotable source.
