BUFFALO, NY - A big priority for Sabres GM Jason Botterill was to find a starting goaltender after they moved on from Robin Lehner. He did just that by signing former St. Louis Blues goalie Carter Hutton on the first day of the NHL free agency.
Hutton has played for the Blackhawks, Predators and Blues but has never been a starter in the league.
Last season, Hutton played in 32 games with the Blues and had a record of 17-7-3 with a 2.09 goals against average.
