That's not a pretty buyout. $1.44M -> $4.44M -> $6.44M -> $2.44M -> $2.44M -> $2.44M

that's a contract I'd happily target if I'm the Flames. Weaponize your cap space, take on a bad contract for future assets. But I could see why the Sabres would prefer a buyout, however painful it is ... nobody likes to pay valuable assets just to get rid of an expensive mistakes.
