Confirmed with Link: Mattias Samuelsson Signs 7 year extension ($4.29M AAV)

What a warrior. This guy's gonna be a monster when we finally get to the playoffs, isn't he?

Who knows when that's gonna be. He might be retired by then.

I wonder if we could VGK to send us Whitecloud for him and a third?

Why would we be adding? Samuelsson, while injured.....is a better player when healthy. And Sammy's contract isn't that out of whack at all.

Samuelson is an average bottom pair guy who is overpaid. When healthy, which isn’t often, he brings no offense and the same defense as Ryjo. We need a 3 C . We may need to add for a team take on that contract with his injury history.

If Samuelsson played anything like Johnson, he likely wouldn't be injured.

The guy has one more year to show he is worth this contract.

Only would cost the Sabres 715k for 10 years to get out of the dog crap contract. Dead cap would double if they wait till he is 26.

Just want to remind people it doesn't cost a lot to buy him out.

Thanks for the reminder. I'll see what I can do.

Luckily, he has looked very good with Clifton this year. We can hopefully put this to bed.

Still massively overpaid

Meh.. I don't think so

 

[SundherDome]

Still massively overpaid

Luckily this league loves to overpay, physical bottom pairing dmen

 

[start winnin]

He’s not that good

 

[Beerz]

Ya'll sure are melting down over a slashing penalty. Guy was a beast all night on the PK.

He has looked the opposite of good to me

Pretty sure this example was put under the definition of gaslighting.

Samuelsson has been mostly fine but he has had a big blunder in each game that has led directly to a goal. So by that count I'd say he's been bad lol
