The Sabres' 7:45 press conference started about 25 minutes late and GM Darcy Regier said the team may not be finished in free agency and certainly hasn't closed the door on trade possibilities. Regier said he acquired Jordan Leopold after Toni Lydman had signed with Anaheim but before Henrik Tallinder signed with New Jersey, although he knew he'd need a defenseman because the likelihood was that Tallinder was going.
Regier said he spoke to Lydman as recently as noon today. He said he was also hopeful of signing two forwards who chose to go elsewhere. Hmmm. He's still looking for more scoring.
