Don’t bring attention to our RFA!
Are the Armstrongs looking for a goalie, too?

Put yourself in his shoes. You’re a good prospect who was drafted by a different regime. This regime traded for a prospect on the same timeline that they prioritized from day one. Now…imagine he signed and they did exactly what they did…rush Levi into the NHL until sanity won out and they sent him down. What happens to your development in this scenario? Levi is going to play in Rochester over you. He’s their guy. So now you are either sitting for weeks on end or you’re playing down a level despite having a great first pro campaign going…as he did.I'm the petty kind. I try not to be but....smell ya later I hope your career has the same arch as Peterson.
Winner winner chicken dinnerGo the Joe Woll route, 3 years at 766k (the cap was lower when he signed though), then signed an extension while still on year 2 of the deal.
You vastly overestimate my care for his playing time etc. The Sabres once again lost a valuable asset that in your scenario you outlined could've been traded for more. I get what you're saying 100% but I care about the team not what he sees best for him. If he was scared of competition im glad he's gone anyways. Competition dominates roles in sports across the board. Dont let the door hit ya if you dont wanna work against competition for your role....Put yourself in his shoes.

It would have been career malfeasance to sign in Buffalo with Levi there already. And it wouldn’t have done Levi any favors either. They both needed to play. That wasn’t going to happen here. He made the only call he could make
Peterson had none of that. He’s just a piece of garbage and I’m glad he failed miserably
i mean it's basically league minToo much money for a guy that has never stepped a foot into NHL ice.
Was talking about if he made closer to two mil a year when Mayor speculated as muchi mean it's basically league min
