In what has turned out to be a relatively quiet day for the Buffalo Sabres. They got a contract done with on of their new prospects today.
Defenseman Brandon Hickey signed a two-year, entry-level contract to remain with the Sabres. The two sides couldn’t make a contract official until today and if a deal didn’t get done, Hickey would have been an unrestricted-free-agent in August.
The Sabres acquired Hickey a few weeks ago as part of the trade that send forward Hudson Fasching to the Arizona Coyotes.
Hickey just finished his four-year career at Boston University.
