Samuelsson has more trade value than roster value IMO

If by "plays" you mean "dress up and take up space", then yes, you would be right. He's just like Von Miller. He contributes even less, too.

When a player like Lafreniere is taking advantage of the Sabres physically, something really needs to be done, both in game and the roster overall.

The very fact that the Sabres believe Okposo brings anything of value is exactly why this team still can't get past the top 50% of this league. He's a career underachiever.

The whole team is and then you put 18-19 year olds on the lineup on a team that hasn’t made the playoffs in 12 years and you expect them to win and make the playoffs, not gonna happen.

This team decided that guys like Okposo were the example these young guys need to learn from. This team reaps what it sows.

UPL, Benson, Johnson, Peterka and Olofsson are all playing well tonight. Hopefully they bring it in the 3rd. No McDermott prevent defence please.

Von Miller could lay in the fetal position every snap for the rest of the season and will still be a first ballot Hall of Famer.

Kyle Okposo could score 50 this year and his legacy will still be nothing more than a guy who made a blue collar fan base addicted to mediocrity feel better about itself.

Okposo served his purpose, he’s a year past his expiry date.

A real coaching staff would have Okposo and E Johnson as 13F and 7D respectively and rotating it every so often when injuries/guys need a breather.

Pretending that the guy wasn’t a good NHL’er is a tad bit harsh whether it was on the Island or here

Okposo is the 382nd guy to play 1000 games if I’m not mistaken

Decent career

during okposo's tenure as a sabre

he was overpaid for what he produced and what he brings on the ice is a minimal return on investment

Kyle Okposo has never contributed anything meaningful when it comes to what matters, the win column, either here or Long Island. Your statement would hold merit if this used car salesman of a GM brought in players that know how to win when it matters. Instead, he pegged guys like Okposo and Girgensons explicitly and said "these are the guys we want our team to learn from." When you hold mediocrity as your standard, mediocrity is what you get.
