Sabres Sign Forward Grier to One-Year Extension

The Buffalo Sabres announced on Monday that they have signed right wing Mike Grier to a one-year contract extension. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. He would've been an unrestricted free agent on July 1. In 73 games this past season with the Sabres, Grier scored 10 goals and 12 assists for 22 points. He added two goals in six games for the team in the off-season. In 987 career NHL games with the Edmonton Oilers, Washington Capitals, San Jose Sharks, and Buffalo Sabres, he has 157 goals and 210 assists for 367 points. This is a decent signing for the Sabres, as Grier is a consistent forward who plays very hard every game. He's also a great two-way forward with plenty of speed and grit and excels on the penalty kill. Grier's experience and dedication will be extremely valuable for the Sabres next season.
