Smith joins Justin Bailey, Danny O’Regan, Nicholas Baptiste, and Sean Malone as RFAs that have signed one year deals this off-season with the Sabres. The question is now whether Reinhart will get a bridge deal or a long-term contract.

| Previous | PPG | CF% | Career GP | Career PS |
| Anthony Mantha | Red Wings | $832,500 | 2 years/6.6 million | 0. |
