On Skinner...
I will have a full rumor update coming shortly, bur I was just told the Sabres and Skinner are finally getting a little more serious about an extension. The feeling prior to this season was that Skinner would be testing free agency...for certain...Now however, there are actual talks going on to extend Skinner in Buffalo...
What kind of offer would it take to keep Skinner in Buffalo? My source says in the 9.5 per range...Currently Jeff Skinner is having the season of his life with 28 goals already...but many feel that this season isn't the norm for Skinner and to put him into the Eichel range of salary is insane...
