Feel for him. Great guy, but it has been downhill now for a while.

 

[beowulf]

Not surprising he is expected to produce offence and having no points in 14 games does not help.

 

[Royal Thunder]

Sucks for Matt but this was long overdue. He's been the least effective even strength player in the league for a couple years now, it's like he lost all his hockey abilities except shooting.

Same. Really surprised to see his game fall off as rapidly as it has. Just hasn't been the same since he was an Islander. Tavares deserves some credit, but 3 straight 30 goal seasons and nearly a ppg in the lockout year means he had the ability to finish on his own.

Finally, you're a quality human being, but watching you play hockey is torture at this stage.

 

[CatsforReinhart]

Christmas early!

 

[Finnish your Czech]

I hope he gave a portion of his contract back to Tavares.

Guy had a good run for quite a while but with no points thus far this season the Sabres made the right choice here IMO.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

I just can't see anyone taking that contract on, had he been a UFA at season end maybe but with another year, forget it

No one would take on that contract even if there was a week left on it...

 

[WarriorOfGandhi]

amazing what playing with Tavares can do for your career

Guy couldn't skate 10 years ago. No idea how he's made it this long in the league.

John Tavares, and 2-3 30 goal seasons lol

Claimed by NYI before you know it. Moulson will call his good friend and Snow won't dare to defy the will of JT. Moahahhaha

 

[Seedling]

So nobody is gonna claim him. Cap savings would be 500K in the minors? You have to figure he gets bought out this June.

 

[aemoreira1981]

Demoted for rest of year...bought out after season.

 

[PWJunior]

So how much does he get paid if he gets bought out in June?

my guess is 1.66 for the next 2 seasons

[PWJunior]

At least Moulson got paid in his career.

Matt "I'm just happy to be here" Moulson

Good riddance

 

[SundherDome]

Wouldn't be surprised to see him in Florida after we pay his signing bonus on July 1st. 5 million cap hit and a 2 million actual salary may be tempting for a cap team with the cap expected to rise almost 5 million. He could be a decent 13th forward and pp presence.

Maybe for McGinn

 

[Yatzhee]

He should be a buyout candidate. But unless the Sabres are moving ROR and making a run at Tavares, they are in no pressing position for the cap space. He could ride out his contract in Rochester.
