Report: Sabres to land Hutton on 3-year deal

The Buffalo Sabres reportedly appear set to land free-agent goaltender Carter Hutton on a three-year contract, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

The deal will pay Hutton slightly under $3 million per season.

Hutton, 32, was stellar for the St. Louis Blues last season, and appears to have landed his first No. 1 gig in the NHL. He had a .931 save percentage in 32 games in 2017-18, and was thought to be the top goalie available on the market.

Friedman adds that the Sabres will reportedly sign another free-agent goalie in Scott Wedgewood on Sunday. Wedgewood will slot in as the organization's No. 3 goaltender.
