- IndianaSabresFan

I was on record as a supporter. He was my favorite prospect. For skinner, sold. The last comment was just a joke with his name.

The fan of the team with the longest NHL playoff drought trolling the fans of the the team with the second-longest drought.

Where is the solidarity?

Can't be done for at least 7 years. Part of the purchase agreement Dundon had to sign with the league when he bought the team.

If that's an oddly specific number, that's because that's when the team's lease on the building runs out.

Yeah, I'm not going to do that. This place hurts my head enough lately, I'm not going to back read 4 pages worth of nonsense.

There actually is a "Bogo clause"

The team then sent out a second tweet showing Eichel holding his new No. 9 jersey with the captain's 'C' on it – and announcing that Kyle Okposo and injured defenseman Zach Bogosian have been named alternate captains. Housley said either Marco Scandella or Rasmus Ristolainen will wear an 'A' in place of Bogosian, who remains day to day with a lower-body injury.

20 more months.

Only 20 more.

I predicted him to have 8 goals last year. I will not do that again

First year in the A, nothing wrong with that. He’s a great skater, he should move up the chart soon enough.

Maybe. He's got Julien Gauthier and Saku Maenalanen in front of him at the moment.

Soon enough is a relative term. Maybe in the end Skinner was in fact traded for nothing

Maybe. His trade was more a cultural thing than anything. Which, of course, never works out.

It wasn't really because of anything Skinner did or didn't do, I think the team just wanted to move on to a new era and Jeff was kind of the face of the team for the last 8 years of misery.

Hey boys. First time poster, long time lurker. Paches is always a good read and the rest of you boys are the biggest bunch of a-holes. I mean that as a high compliment. Keep doing what you do.

Can’t wait to see Captain Jack and the boys skate tomorrow. Not sure if we are going to be good, but we are definitely going to be better.

Penny pinching? He doesn't make very much soooooo.... no, I don't think it's that.

Brind'Amour really ripped into him after the trade, which was odd to me. Skinner handled that very professionally

5.7m on an expiring contract....sure looks like they didn't want to give him a raise and a long term extension. Add in the other moves and stories floating around and it seems very plausible.

I wonder who's going to get the "A" when Bogo misses half the season. That's the real question.
