Buffalo Floats Knies With a Robert Thomas-Style Offer Sheet

Buffalo is taking another swing at a high-end target, and the approach looks a lot like the one it used when it chased Robert Thomas. That kind of package tells you the Sabres are not shopping in the bargain bin, even if the rest of the league would rather pretend otherwise. Matthew Knies is the name in the window, and the structure of the offer says Buffalo is trying to force a real decision instead of a polite conversation.
