Player Discussion Jordan Greenway, LW, Extended 2-years, $4M AAV, 5-team NTC

[Ehran]

If he can stay healthy, then I'm okay with this. He has a unique skillset that is missing on this roster.

 

[cybresabre]

I heard half of greenway's salary will be paid in free range eggs.

hmm, if true, I may be able to buy the team from Terry

 

[Duddy]

I can chip in a lot of cheap eggs to buy the team as well. No problem.

also we gotta keep the few grown up nhlers we have, since adding them seems to be a nearly impossible task for kev kev.

Terry's moved on from Fracking to Eggs farms now

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

I missed joke about eggs?

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

I'm not too concerned, I can rationalize out the Buffalo tax they are constantly paying. But at some point they need someone at market value (or better).

I like Greenway as a defensive player and PKer. The nights when he's moving people around like a bulldozer are great - his game against the Rangers for example. The sleepy nights seem fewer and far between but they're there. For a team that is bulging with small players who don't go into traffic and don't engage in battles, I'm fine with keeping him around.

They don't need anyone at market value if they aren't planning on ever really being competitive, or ever spending close to the cap. I can't imagine caring about anyone's salary anymore.

Inflation, Cage free legislation, Avian Flu, price gauging, shortages has caused egg prices to skyrocket in the u.s. some are paying $10+ a dozen.

I also have suggestion but will keep it by myself.

egg prices in the United States, have climbed each of the last two flu seasons from a combination of euthanizing laying flocks as part of a way to control the spread and of course the fact that they’re very few distribution companies and the ones that they have are absolutely gouging US consumers.

And now back to our regularly scheduled stuff

 

[Beerz]

I'm more worried about Wings.. like 1.50 to 2.00 a wing

 

[NotABadPeriod]

A little weird that the team hasn't said anything yet

The fax machine is still broken.

(Too soon?)

Officially official from the Sabres:

Sabres sign Greenway to 2-year contract extension | Buffalo Sabres

The forward is now signed through the 2026-27 season.

Happy to keep one of the few likeable, adult players on the roster for a few more years. Northern New York kid, probably enjoys pace and culture of life here.

Been said ad nauseam but he fills a role we haven't had much of for the past decade. Wish he had a bit more sandpaper but I like him plenty as a player.

 

[Dreakon13]

Hard to get too excited about moves that keep this team together... but injuries aside, Greenway has been one of the few promising spots this year and keeping players that fill needs is part of the process.

It’s crazy how expensive those became. They went from thrown away to becoming dog food to getting a pound at the grocery store for a buck to now $15 a pound.

Hell yes. No brainer move. Would have preferred a three year deal. Regardless, I can't see this GM replacing what Greenway brings in the open market.

edit: I wonder if the Sabres are on his 5 team NTC.

I don't mind the term. If by the grace of God we're good in 2 years he could sign again

This is pretty risk free move

 

[Butt Ox]

Blueway and Goldway make Greenway. Nice.

Awesome.

Surprised someone wants to stay here.

People have their own motivations - maybe he likes the challenge. Maybe there is a relationship.

I wonder if Buffalo is one of the 5 teams?

Maybe it's the wings...scary thought

Maybe it's Maybeline

Pegula is holding us hostage...Adams is staying.

Surprised someone wants to stay here.

With his reputation as a floater, what better place to be?
