Sabres ink Girgensons to 3-year contract with $2.2M AAV
by Josh Gold-Smith from on (#58Y1T)
The Buffalo Sabres and forward Zemgus Girgensons have agreed to a three-year contract with an average annual value of $2.2 million, the team announced Friday.
Girgensons was a pending unrestricted free agent. The 26-year-old produced 12 goals and seven assists over 69 games in 2019-20.
He's failed to match the career highs of 15 goals and 30 points he posted in 2014-15; he was named an All-Star that season thanks in large part to a slew of votes from his native Latvia.
Girgensons earned $1.6 million on a one-year pact he inked in July 2019.
