Apparently if you are a goalie for Buffalo it is mandatory that you get injured.

So him being on a winning team doesn't make him a winner he was part of that success and was a huge part

He is a winner, I’m stating the obvious, that if it was not Eichel going to Vegas, we don’t get a Tuch

Gee, I said a few weeks ago that Pegula is tired of losing money. Guess no more Oil Well diggings.

Hino, I miss him. He’s played pretty well
considering he’s been relegated to the AHL lines all year

Looks like Krebs might fit well with Quinn
- Powerslave

I sure hope so.

its a little concerning through his first 18 games we've seen very little in terms of offense from him.

(No i'm not writing him off)

anyone not a future fixture on the sabres should be moved this summer

if you are not bringing okposo back for a year or 2 after next season, move him this summer as it can easily be done

time to turn the corner


and I think you can move him if you eat a few mil and not give up anything

then use that 6 million cap or 3 if we eat 3 mil, for a long term fixture

- homiedclown


I see what you're saying, but I don't think he's stealing a roster spot from a young guy and he's a leader here. We all know they love him. So if you eat 3 million celery stalks, you could throw a poop ton of money at.. I don't know. Malkin or Bergeron? By the time we'd need them to be useful, they won't be very useful any longer.

Can he be moved? Probably. Other than cleaning house and let all the U23s run the room with Alex Tuch, I just don't see an intelligent reason. They need the cap, they won't spend in FA, and whatever they do spend in FA will be simply helping them reach the floor.

Idk about “easily”
Just bc Okposo has played better, it doesn’t mean teams are lining up to trade for him
MAYBE we could move him at 50% off, but maybe not
Seems more like a “coin flip” to me than “easily”
