I can see it now. Sabres overpay got RyJo in a trade and Sportsnet writes a piece of buyout candidates in 2021 and 3 Sabres occupy the top 5 in Okposo, Ryjo, and Skinner

Here's some
2:30 minutes less per game compared to last season.
23% drop in shots taken
64% Oz-starts to 53%

His shooting % went up about 35% which tells me his shots were coming from low Danger areas.

Buy low candidate for sure.
Do you buy mustard when it us on sale, or wait for a price increase?

I will say that $8m is alot of money...Adam's has to dump something...Mojo would be easier than Okposso and if Tolvanen is coming back to play say 3LW that could be smart.

They have to put out a hit on Okposo, pure and simple.

With Okposo's concussion issue and downturn in productivity in relation to his 6 million contract I just don't know how they ditch him. Maybe if they eat half of his contract and give him away but his situation is what the GM's get paid the big bucks to deal with.

Need to move some bad money out to bring some more bad money in (that runs much further into the future), good times.

Yeah. if this happens I hope David Poile isn't chomping at the bit to be the first to take advantage of Kevyn Adams.

They need a 2nd line center and they needed scoring when they signed Skinner, they really needed a goalie when they traded a 1st for Robin Lehner. Desperation sucks.

They have a center for Skinner, to bad the head coach doesn't see it.

Dont bother him with trivial matters, he is busy figuring out the 1- Striker, 3-Middies, 1-Fullback, 1- Sweeper formation

While technically true, having no 2 and 3rd lines impacted that a bit...oh, and a defensive system no one could figure out

I like them together, and Sam on the second line. I don't think the case is closed until they have a productive second line.

Hopefully that will be taken care of from what I found out last night, or pointing in n the right direction.

Agreed. Line combinations don't fix those teams.

As long as they don’t have all 3 of Skinner, Eichel, and Reinhart on the same line I’m good with it.

David Savard is a player.

He’s been the best Blue Jacket d-man this series.
