Tuch Likes Buffalo - The Contract Question Is The Real Test

Alex Tuch has made it clear he enjoys being in Buffalo, which is the easy part of the story. The harder part is whether the Sabres can turn that comfort into a long-term contract before things get complicated. Teams always want top players to love the market, but love does not always beat term and dollars. Buffalo has a real retention question here, and those usually get expensive in a hurry.
