Paille, MacArthur, Mancari all sign

The Sabres announced yesterday that Clarke MacArthur and Mark Mancari have agreed to their qualifying offers and also that Daniel Paille has agree to a two year $2.25 million deal that will see him being paid $900,000 in the first year and $1.35 in the second.

This all means that we will most likely see Mancari start the season down in Portland and MacArthur and Paille most likely back up in Buffalo. MacArthur does not have free range moving ability so for him to be sent to Portland he would have to be waived first. This may not be such an issue but it gives the Sabres 14 forwards. So, either a move would have to be made in the rest of the offseason which could be a good possibility or the Sabres play with the 14 forwards they have and almost make certain who is going to make the team and who is not.
