I mean he had 27 in 71.... that counts right? Would of been 31 in 82 games

People are getting way too wrapped up in goal threshholds.

poins per games played last 3 years

Stamkos - .898
Okposo - .876
Hall - .871

You wanted to go all out for Hall and Stamkos but Okposo is the blow the world up player?

Good point

Facts have no place here!!!

Gerbe is going to lose his mind...

Is this the new cool rumor that all players do cocaine?
- ImThatGuy

No it is all over Slick Willie's and Encore. Where Kane spends a ton of time.

His best year was with jt that year ... Yet molasses scores 30 how many times ?


Yet The Islanders never gave him a call to talk about a contract with him because they know they can replace him because he's replaceable

You have good taste sir.

You do realize you're giving the Islanders credit for having competent management, right? They're replacing him with an aging Andrew Ladd.

I thought the goal was to get goal scores here I guess not

Good thing we have centers such as ROR Eichel and Reinhart who can feed Okposo the puck.

the goal is to create a winning team...

I think his point is maybe we should reserve spending that kind of money for goal scorers who can flat out score regardless of who their centre is.

LOVE that line!!! Gotta keep your head on a swivel when you get caught in the middle of a vicious cockfight.

Ladd is only 30 what ???? Aging Ladd lol he's more of a complete player and who doesn't want to add a guy that wins cups Yep who needs that

Agreed, but who is out there that we can get?

So is every player that isn't elite. So what's your plan? I'm not super sold on Okposo but I don't really know what else is out there. Anyone we get is going to cost at least 5M if they've scored 20. Any names you want them to target?

Agreed, but who is out there that we can get?

The pic, not the location

We will win the Ville Okposo sweepstakes. Book it!

Good thing we have centers such as ROR Eichel and Reinhart who can feed Okposo the puck.
- ImThatGuy

Tell me when he scores 30 goals or more and then I'll consider him

3 20 goal seasons are you (frank)ing kidding me

Ladd is only 30 what ???? Aging Ladd lol he's more of a complete player and who doesn't want to add a guy that wins cups Yep who needs that

Kane and Towes had nothing to do with those, right? This is my least favorite thing people say. That he "wins". It's a team sport, he helped, and he has rings, sure. But when that is said it makes it sound like he single handedly willed that team to a cup.

He won cups years ago on a stacked team. I like him a lot. For the same term/money, I'd take Okposo all day long.

- Sabresfan-365

Problem with that way of thinking is those guys are few and far between. Hockey is a team game, thus if KO needs talented centers to play to his potential, the Sabres have 2 of those guys. I'm not advocating it, just saying I don't see him dropping off a la Moulson style.

Oil rumored to be offering the Caveman 7/$42m, long term but decent price tag.

Agreed, but who is out there that we can get?
- ImThatGuy

You trade for one I don't know who it is but you don't blow your load on a guy that has even reached 30 goals and only 27 goals is his highest of his career

Tell me when he scores 30 goals or more and then I'll consider him

3 20 goal seasons are you (frank)ing kidding me
- GERBE!!!75PTS

Gotta agree with Gerbs on this one....I want nothing to do with Okposo...seems like he destined to be a classic overspend by the Sabres who ends up disappearing

We're giving O'Reilly 7 million for 60 points, why wouldn't we do the same for Okposo when he had more points than him last year?
