Alex Lyon’s Bargain Goalie Boom | Buffalo Sabres News

Alex Lyon’s breakout season with the Buffalo Sabres has turned heads—and wallets. At 33, the netminder posted a stellar .907 save percentage and 2.77 GAA in 36 games, including career-high three shutouts. His playoff performance was even more impressive: .904 SV% and 2.59 GAA over 10 games earned him an A-minus grade despite limited postseason experience. Signed to a one-year, $1.5M deal, Lyon’s value is undeniable. With his 34th birthday looming and the Sabres trading away their former goalie of the future, Devon Levi, Lyon and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen are now the team’s goaltending anchors. If Lyon keeps this level of play, he’s likely headed for a contract extension—or a lucrative offer elsewhere. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
