Confirmed with Link: Mittelstadt re-signed (3 years, $5.75M AAV)

Most likely just a result of a poorly run organization.

Mitts was the Sabres best overall center and they traded the guy away for the #3 LD on the depth chart. Since then they been looking for a center and traded for McLeod.

It's this. By all accounts Buffalo never even tried to negotiate an extension for Mitts. All the while having more than enough cap space to fit him in short or long term.

And he signed with you lot for a very reasonable 3 x $5.75m

Don't tell our fans this. They will come and tell you what a terrible deal this is.

No matter which combos you have PP1 ends up with 1:45 and PP2 is lucky to get on the ice.

…and those 15 seconds are spent retrieving the puck from our zone, skating up ice, and dumping it in as the guy comes out of the box.
