Yeah, nothing jumps off the pages and tells me he is DEFINITELY going to do that. But I still think the guy is insanely talented so I'll hold out hope that he could mature a bit and improve his game enough to come close to his potential. I think that this 2016 team will include some of the better offensive players he's had as teammates (sorry Blake Wheeler and Andrew Ladd).

For such a long time our fans have hoped to god that much less talented players would turn into something they never looked like they could be (guys like Kotalik or Afinagenov come to mind). Hopefully now we can watch a dude who definitely has the talent, reach it.

So here is to hoping that as this whole team improves, he decides to elevate his game with them instead of stagnate.

Maxim was very good for a while. Better than Kane is. He was maybe our best player the whole year in 05-06

Apparently it was pretty serious. Sounded like Risto used the N word and Kane tried to choke him.

But no one would ever say Risto is at fault..

What are the predictions for tomorrow?

Risto signs?

Vesey signs?

Over pay for Okposo?

Something unexpected?

Or nothing?

I always hate UFA day. Why are these players not already resigned by the teams that know them best?

If Nielsen and Okposo both leave that's 42 goals and 116 points they need to replace. That could be our 8 seed.

My intention wasn't to say he was bad. I dont think he ever lived up to what his game sometimes showed and what fans here thought he'd be. I think he was talented but I wouldn't say he was anywhere near the combination of talent that Evander Kane is.

I'd give you 100/1 odds on that happening. Snow basically said "don't let the door knob hit you on the ass on the way out" already

He didn't tweet anything. Where did he say something? THe last thing was 3 hours ago that Tom Wilson re-signed in Washington. He has a couple re-tweets but nothing about Nielsen.

With the Sabres looking to trade Kane, I wonder if it increases the chance to sign Ladd. I'm sure him being gone already, would.

Not that I have heard but the Okposo rumor is coming back along with a few others.
