The Sabres spent this morning cleaning out their lockers, some of them for the last time possibly. The Sabres have six unrestricted free agents and seven restricted players. Some might not be back. The lists:
UFA: Steve Montador, Cody McCormick, Tim Connolly, Rob Niedermayer, Mike Grier, Matt Ellis.
RFA: Jhonas Enroth, Mike Weber, Marc-Andre Gragnani, Drew Stafford, Chris Butler, Nathan Gerbe, Andrej Sekera.
Take your vote on which UFAs the Sabres should keep.
