So it’s ok for Skinner to benefit from the cheerleader effect due to the crap that surrounds him ?

What’s wrong with Larsson ? He’s been elite defensively.

3/4 of those players listed won’t be on the roster next year, we will eventually acquire depth that will play worth a poop and then the question will still remain if we could of used Skinner’s dollars more effectively somewhere else.

I’d love Okposo if he made $2-3M but he’s making $6M. We’ll be saying the same thing about Skinner in a few years.

Funny thing is most of them have more points then Skinner does in December.

Sounds like Botterill thinks of all his players like he does Bogosian.

Botterill was a career AHL'er. I'm not sure he's the best one for assessing talent. Plus he has CTE, buffalo39 confirmed it.

Sunny side of the egg outlook:

The Olofsson - Johansson - Reinhart plays so well and scores a goal or two, so that when Eichel is back, the Olofsson - Johansson - Reinhart line stays together and we have Skinner - Eichel - Anyone as another line.

Per Dreger- Sounds like the flu

I guess he didn’t try the Alexi zhitnick approach that rob ray mentioned on wgr a few weeks ago.

Zhitnik would grab a bottle of vodka and sit in he sauna all day and he would be good to go

Reinhart reminds me of the wimpy guy from ICE HOCKEY for the NES except not as good.

Yeah but the plot twist is that Vodka is actually Russian blood plasma bottled and sold, so he was just replacing plasma and electrolytes

Sheary is a pure goal scorer.

Connor tips one in. Can’t wait to see how much he re-signs to the Sabres for.

It's completely obvious that Jason Botterill owes his continued employment to Jack Eichel 100%

I'm sorry but Johansson is nothing more than a 3rd line winger. He sucks. He's like the medium guy in ICE HOCKEY for the NES except he sucks even more somehow.
