Jimmy Vesey's plan doesn't appear to have changed since having his rights dealt to the Buffalo Sabres.

The 23-year-old will become an unrestricted free agent on Aug. 15 and he still intends to do so, his agent said according to WKBW's Nick Filipowski.

Vesey was originally signed by the Nashville Predators in the third-round in 2012, but the North Reading, MA native elected not to sign with the club after playing out his entire college career at Harvard. The decision ruffled the feathers of the Predators, and caused a confrontation of sorts between the two camps back in March.

In the meantime, the Sabres will have roughly two months to sway Vesey, lest he hit the open market and sign wherever he chooses.
