Sabres sign goalie Jason Kasdorf to entry-level contract

The Buffalo Sabres have signed goaltender Jason Kasdorf to an entry-level contract after he recently completed his senior college season at R.P.I, the team announced Monday.

The netminder will be immediately reporting to Buffalo, Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News reports. Kasdorf signed a one-year, pro-rated contract worth $667,500, which would make him a restricted free agent July 1, according to General Fanager.

The 23-year-old was a sixth-round draft pick of the Winnipeg Jets in 2011, and was involved in the seven-player trade that also sent forward Evander Kane and defenseman Zach Bogosian to Buffalo.

Kasdorf finished his senior year with a 12-12-5 record, posting a 2.30 goals-against average and an impressive .931 save percentage.
