Update on ELC watch 2025

Marjala - no-brainer ELC, but does he see a path to NHL with Sabres?
Miedema - should be a yes ELC, but this is the franchise that didn't sign Hagel...
Leinonen - no-brainer ELC
Strbak - should be yes ELC, physically ready for AHL, sign him if only to crowd out Prow
Ratzlaff is signed
Poltapov - maybe 2027
von Barnekow - he re-upped with Malmo, no ELC, farewell sweet prince ...
Costantini - no ELC, maybe AHL
Huglen - no ELC, maybe AHL

Wild card is Sardarian. 6-1, 179, 6+3 in 10 games, he turns 22 in February. If he's better served to be coached in Rochester, I'd sign him in the summer.

Glotov was mentioned in another thread, I think he's aged out of ELC, but if he's PPG in KHL, 1 year $1.15 million why not, doesn't effect the cap, bury him in Rochester, give him a couple games in the NHL as a one time call-up.

Sardarian I think will get a deal. He is very under the radar, but I think he is similar to a Nadeau ECHL/AHL Tweener while they develop him.

Agreed on everyone else

The only questions I have are if Sardarian and Marjala want to come over and grind.

I think the Glotov ship has sailed. That's just me.

Sabres have 5 contract slots
None of those guys would be signed to NHL deals for this season, it would be future deals for next year with a AHL PTO, and they only have 22 contracts for next year right now. They'll have room for those guys, especially if Adams trades a few prospects to improve the roster this year, and they can walk away from a few guys currently in Rochester as well.

I took the statement as they have a lot of contracts to hand out. 5 is good. 1 or 2 gets tight 🤷
