According to TSN, the Buffalo Sabres got their number of players headed for arbitration down to 8 today when they signed forward Ales Kotalik to a multi-year deal two days prior to his scheduled arbitration hearing.Kotalik, 27, had a career year last season, registering 25 goals, 37 assists, and 62 points while playing in all 82 games.
NHL Jeff's Take: It is great that the Sabres are finding a way to get some of these guys signed before they head to arbitration. GM Darcy Regier is trying to keep as much of last year's team together as he can and signing Kotalik is another step in that direction. He really stepped up his play last season and will hopefully continue at that level again this season.
