Drew Stafford - Contract Year

Bucky took a look at how Drew Stafford looked this pre-season.

It will be interesting to see what the contract year effect does to Drew Stafford.

Then it will be interesting to see what the Sabres do with Drew Stafford if he does get a big contract year bump in production.

Knowing the Sabres approach, they will reward Drew with a nice, fat contract extension and bank on that he'll maintain that level moving forward, or maybe even improve.

Personally, I hope the Sabres deal Drew Stafford if he does have a big jump in production this year.

He's never been a guy that has earned my trust as a fan. And one big contract year season won't change that for me.

• The Rangers waived Tim Kennedy? I hope Tim has waived his agent.
• Vanek & Kaleta having neck injuries worries me. Lalime having a groin issue makes me wish the Sabres had gone another route at back up goalie. Like say signed Jose Theodore....
• I hate MSG & Dish Network.
