Sabres Trade Biron To Flyers For Draft Pick
Jan 30, 2014 3:45 PM
Sabres goaltender Martin Biron was traded to the Flyers on Tuesday for a second-round draft pick.
The move comes hours before the NHL trade deadline and was not unexpected. An eight-year NHL veteran, Biron has been seeking a trade since losing the No. 1 job to Ryan Miller early last season. And the injury-depleted Sabres have been looking to free up payroll because they are at the NHL's $44 million salary cap.
Biron was pulled aside and informed of the trade while the Sabres were in Toronto preparing to play the Maple Leafs.
