Did they pay out his entire salary? I don't know. As for there being more to the story, rumour and innuendo - but given my bias I'm okay liking them even less than I already did.

And yes, McPhee did take advantage of a situation - and for his sake I hope he never needs another job because I'm sure there are some organizations that won't forget it (or maybe they will...some of those same franchises that should be most pissed also voted to award the franchise and knew the expansion rules ahead of that).

Really this is just me not liking Vegas. Nobody has to agree with any of my reasons, or even agree that they are unlikable.
If I remember correctly, I think they paid all of his remaining salary which is why it was a big story (pundits saying Vegas showed a lot of class in how they treated him).

Buffalo had a team meeting and canceled practice just to come out and get trucked 6-1 by the Habs. Looks like rock bottom.

As much as Sabres fans can be incredible dirt bags, I can't help but empathize with the supporters. They're a small market with a passionate fan base that has been given no favours in their existence, and much like us, is another popular resident of most no-trade lists, with harsh weather being a common refrain.

The deck is stacked against them as much as it is against us.

Plus they hate the Leafs, which is an admiral quality in any human being.

Nonetheless if Staios has his eye on anyone on that roster, pick up the phone right now.
