Morning Links: Sabres Bring Back Grier

The big news of the day was the signing of Mike Grier.  It shows the Sabres commitment to becoming a bigger and tougher team.  It's a curious signing because Grier didn't leave Buffalo on the best of terms.  He criticized the organization and questioned the teams commitment to winning.  I have to think that Grier felt he was out of options or he wouldn't have come to Buffalo.
