my guess is the sabres will be off the hook on the deal

first step will be unconditional waivers

once unclaimed, my guess is the berglund camp won't fight the 3 mil or so he loses so he can go home

Not counting this year he's still owed $9.85M on his deal. He's going to fight tooth and nail for that.

Why do you think Pegs will just roll and give him 3M a year settlement?

I'm genuinely curious.. contracts, legal binding, contract language, etc., I just don't see why Pegs would pay a guy 3M a year to not be on his team...

You're kidding right? How many coaches are still getting big money from him? Matt Moulson is getting paid to play for another team's AHL affiliate.

I'm not defending what he did/is doing. But there's a poopload of money on the table and he's not going away without a fight. Would you?

So you think he will report to Rochester?

I mean if he flat out refuses to play, is there much he can do? That would certainly be a material breach of his contract and therefore grounds for termination.

Or am I wrong? I thought him refusing was the big deal here.

He's screwing the Sabres with what he is doing but also, screwing himself with other teams in the league. Bogo had enough and told him in " NICE" way to shut his pile hole.
