The Buffalo Sabres signed their only remaining restricted free agent on Thursday when the team signed Jerry D’Amigo to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Sabres acquired D’Amigo in a trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets that sent Luke Adam to Columbus in December. Columbus traded for D’Amigo over the summer, grabbing him for a conditional pick from the Toronto Maple Leafs.
D’Amigo played nine games for the Sabres and didn’t register a point. He split the rest of the season between the Springfield Falcons on Rochester Americans in the AHL, playing 59 games over which he scored nine goals and 17 assists.
