$2.25 per x 4 years.

Sabres have 0 value contracts other than Dahlin and Reinhart. That deal will be a steal in years 3 and 4

Something like that. Should be a very modest signing.

Skinner is undoubtedly better than JVR, Kane and Pacioretty though.

He realistically should be between 7.5 and 8.5

Nine isn’t a huge deal

Pay him so we can move on

Thanks for all your work Pach. I’m a long time lurker. Always love your takes. And with the added bonus of Hommie and 89 I just keep coming back for more....

7 or 7.5 is perfect for Skinner, to bad the market doesn't agree with me. He will get paid.
- SABRES 89



I completely agree.

We cant let him go, he knows, his agent knows.

You're not accounting for inflation
- jcragcrumple



Good point

2 years inflation maybe 5% per x 2 years.
Say 10%

8.25 million ?

Skinner sign yet north of 9 million?


Yesterday or today right?

- Boss34

For anything over 8 million, I hope not

Odd because they had a guy pass away in Deadwood in 1889 who actually died in Denver in 1904.........
- dadeadhead


Sure, but Al was no senator. Plus Charlie, no one really knows when the hell he died. He supposedly went to Panama and opened a few stores, and was last reported in 1913, but there is no record of his death. He apparently had 3 different birth years too, and not just a few years apart either, 1831, 1838, and 1843. He was one curious character.

Edit: Though that would be a badass ending for Al, mid-credits scene of him walking down a street at night and then gets bashed over the head and then a few guys go to work on him and fade to black.

Mr. Pachla,

You've done a great job being a voice of reason. You never get too high or too low. You tell it as you see it. Keep up the great work. I've been a poster for 3 years, and a lurker for a year before that, and I can honestly say you have some of the best best analysis in the Sabres business

I don't always agree with you, but I respect your point of view. It's never reactionary, always authentic

Exactly how sore are your knees after that one?

And before we say, well the Sabres suck, they were 17-9-4 on Berglund's last game. He didn't want to be traded, he blames his agent for (frank)ing up the deadline, came here, was buried, hated it, and walked away.

I've been told by a wise poster that , if only the Sabres Organization would have properly cared for Burgland we would be respected and have his Cap Hit for the next 4yrs.

Skinner brings a Sniper Shot, Amazing on his Skates, Gets Salty, Vet presence, Eichel Fans Like him and he likes being here.

Blues allowed 3 straight PP goals.

They could use a Selke caliber player on the PK
