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

Decent career

13th in scoring on a lottery team

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.

you could make a case that if he lived up to expectations when he signed with the sabres then ror, eichel and reinhart would still be here

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

When did games played turn into a stat people care about?

I’ll never understand attributing team results to an individual player.

The LOG line did its job, unfortunately at this point they are cooked, cause what this team needs is the prime LOG line

Yeah I mean it’s tough to foresee a player suffering multiple concussions, one that almost killed him, prior to handing a guy a 7 year 42M contract.

5% of free agents ever live up to their contract.

Even Skinner with how good he’s been the last couple of years won’t live up to this contract

All we’ve asked for is a guy who can make a coupe key saves to keep us in games. Here he is Adams

Best he's ever looked, but you still fear the inconsistency kicks in again. Ride him while he's hot. He's keeping the season alive.
