It shouldn’t come as that much of a surprise, but Frank Seravalli of TSN reported that the Buffalo Sabres are among a handful of teams that could put in an internal salary cap for next season. The cap ceiling is set at $81.5 million for at least the next two years under the new CBA.
Here is the quote on the Sabres from Seravalli’s piece:
“Sources say the Sabres are considering an internal salary cap in the low $70 million range...”
Again, with how the last few months have gone at Pegula Sports and Entertainment this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise if this is their plan.
