When it comes to his physical attributes, Okposo isn't slow but a much faster NHL game can leave him in the dust a bit and he does have a tendency to get lost in the pace of the play


Debatable.

I also disagree with the contention that the Sabres aren't in a salary bind. If they re-sign Skinner, they have around $17m to sign 5 players. That's not much for a team that desperately needs more skill.

If Skinner doesn't re-sign, then yeah, i won't worry about it. But Okposo is shot, kaput, done.

if our other first round pick is in the 20's

I would move it and okposo for a 7th rd pick

time to shed all of the crap from raw deal tim murray


IMO moving him and a few other cast offs is the most important thing right now (scandella, girgens, lockport larry and sobotka)

if you can't move them, bury them in the AHL

Would absolutely move him for our late 1st. That 6 million can be used for a player now. The 1st rd pick won’t be in the NHL for 4 years. Could you trade it for a player now??? Sure but that’s almost the same as just signing a guy off FA for 6mil.

We will never win with a 6 million boat anchor on the roster like him.

I'm with homie,

If st. Louis advances and our pick is high 20's, trade okposo and the contract.

Go shopping July 1st.

you do realize that Okposo was signed on July 1st and that most free agent contracts signed at that time are way overpriced?

right?

I've always said to move our late 1st and Okposo, get rid of him and his bad contract.
