Hometown Sports: Sabres Don't Expect Big Splash

NHL Free Agency began today at noon. Sabre GM Darcy Regier said he did not expect the team to be active in signing new players, but that he might try to improve the roster through trades. Buffalo has six unrestricted free agents, including Jaro Spacek and Max Afinogenov. They can match any offer made to restricted free agents Drew Stafford, Andrej Sekera or Patrick Kaleta. The Rangers traded forward Scott Gomez to the Canadiens.
