And the Winner Is...

by Anne

Our most recent poll asked the following question:

Of the following defensemen scheduled to be UFAs (not counting Wiz) whom would you most like to see the Sabres go after?

The winner is (drumroll please):



Current Montreal Canadien and NHL All-Star
Mike Komisarek

Wooooo!

Michael is a shut-down defenseman that will likely command a pretty penny on July 1. The numbers I've heard rumored are in the $5 - $6 million a season for 4+ seasons. That's kind of a lot. Therefore, ain't no way he'll be a Buffalo Sabres on July 1st or any time after that. Mattias Ohlund came in 2nd by only one vote, but Mike Komisarek grabbed the early lead and never relinquished control. Only Bouwmeester, Ohlund and Komisarek received more than one vote. Ha.

Le sigh

  1. I can't remember if I voted for Ohlund or Komi, but I like the way the poll went anyways. :D
