From the Sabres:

BUFFALO, NY (June 1, 2008) – Buffalo Sabres GM Darcy Regier announced today the Sabres have agreed to terms on a two-year entry-level contract with forward Tim Kennedy, who recently completed his junior season with the Michigan State Spartans. Kennedy was originally drafted in the sixth round (181st overall) of the 2005 Entry Draft by Washington, but his rights were acquired by Buffalo in a draft day trade with the Capitals. “We are thrilled to have a player of Tim’s caliber join the Sabres organization,” said Regier. “After three years at Michigan State, we believe this local product is ready to make the move to the professional level.”
