Sabres land Hutton on 3-year deal

The Buffalo Sabres have landed free-agent goaltender Carter Hutton on a three-year contract, the team announced Sunday.

The deal will pay Hutton $2.75 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.

The Sabres will reportedly sign another free-agent goalie in Scott Wedgewood on Sunday, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman. Wedgewood will slot in as the organization's No. 3 goaltender.
