Cody Franson became a free agent almost two months ago. He has yet to sign as he is looking for a multi year deal and so far that seems hard to find. Franson is coming off three straight seasons of 1 year contracts, so it’s not hard to see why stability would be one of his top priorities.
The Buffalo Sabres can provide Franson with stability, money, playing time, and a good team.
The Buffalo Sabres could still use a veteran defenseman, especially one that is great on the power play.
Franson is that; he ranks 6th in power play scoring per 60 minutes in the last five years.
