Yeah, no, the production at even strength, the ability to penalty kill and the positional versatility begs to differ

Bad hill to die on, Fitz

Ummmmm....
Lazar doesn’t produce more than Okposo 5v5
He doesn’t produce AT ALL


And we have guys ahead of him on the PK
And plenty that are positionally versatile

You’re wrong dude, plain wrong

I'm replying to this gem of a comment:

E Rod scores 7 even strength goals last year & is beloved by some

Okposo scores the same & is trash

Hmmmmmm

And you admitted you haven't watched any preseason. You're out of your element, donny

Tell me about Lazar’s advanced stats in the whole ONE game in the NHL he played last year please

I am not arguing Okposo is good
But he does produce some
VS a player who produces basically nothing

- jdfitz77


Our discussion sir was regarding your comment about the love for Erod and hate for Okposo. That was the player comparison in talking about.

Yeah, and it’s bonkers
Lazar produces ZERO

If there was a reasonable way to get rid of Okposo, we’d all be for it
Obviously Botts couldn’t get rid of him
He didn’t sign him
We are stuck it appears

When Okposo becomes “Moulson” then I’m all for demoting him
But let’s at least replace him with someone with potential (at the very least) to help

What rumor was that?


Has Homie weighed in on this new rotation of Jets/Sabres rumors?

Laine seems a bit far fetched
Wonder if Ehlers could be had though??

Laine is not far fetched if anything he’s probably more pissed he didn’t get his long term deal

He can have fun in buffalo soon

I’d settle for Roslovic and Perrault, but Ehlers would be lovely

Really think they are going to sign him, bring him into camp, and trade him 3 days later? There's no chance.

I think Roslovic & Perrault is a mediocre return
1) they’ve gotta be desperate- let’s take advantage
2) didn’t they already offer us that & Botts turned it down?
3) our Center depth moving forward is in great shape- I’d rather have a scoring winger than Roslovic

Botts is right to hold out to get a better offer for Risto imo
Even if it means we have to add
Acquire a “core” piece

If Roslovic is, then fine
But then we should be trading Mitts for a scoring winger
