“I’ll try to decide tomorrow,” Girgensons said when asked about his decision whether or not he would turn pro.

The news was first reported, as you see above, by Scott Fleishman of WCAX out of Burlington, Vermont.

The official announcement from the Buffalo Sabres regarding Girgensons signing an entry-level contract is expected at some point this afternoon.

Zemgus Girgensons is expected to start the season with Buffalo’s AHL affiliate, the Rochester Americans.

When asked about Girgensons, Sabres coach Lindy Ruff told the media “He (Girgensons) already has a man body. He’s strong enough to handle the heavy bodies down there.”

    Ironic, how Zem-Gooose was wearing #28 in development cap...since he was traded (in the grand scheme of things) for #28 Paul"Goose"Gaustad.

    I love it. This is the guy who will be wearing the "C" on his sweater in just a few years.....let's hope he's in the blue and gold wearing that "C" for the next decade and a half! (Big expectations, I know.....)

    I think it's great he wanted to finish his college career, but I'm happy he signed.
