Twitter is sort of confusing.

Some say we save 500 K and others say we save 4.5 million.

If we actually save 4.5 mill. That’s a win.

Depth lineman shouldn’t cost that much

And potentially more ammo to move up for a stud WR

Saved 4.5 for next years cap. 1.4 this year.

Hire Lindy as President, Keep GMKA for now, fire Donnie and hire Gallant.

Yes...but that makes too much sense and the team would finally make the playoffs.

Kid can throw them down for sure, long wingspan on that man helps for sure.

Who cares. Are you Mike Harrington? He still cries about Eichel

Reinhart wanted out of Buffalo. I’m not sure how you force him to stay?

Only reason Rhino wanted out is because they never offered him a long-term contract. At the end he wanted out, but the Sabres did it to themselves as usual.

I like Reinhart a lot.

Whoever pays him will regret it IMO.

Aside from being paid a lot of money and not producing up to the contract, what has Okposo given to the organization?

>>> Given what Okposo has given to this organization, Adams should defer to Okposo in regard to what comes next.

They just might, still doesn't change the fact that he might have stayed if they would have given him a Long term contract.

Hate to say it as his biggest fan but agreed. This year will balloon his cap hit and he will almost surely regress.

Agreed.
As usual, in their contract year, players all of a sudden seem to play at the top of their game... Then they take their foot of the gas.
It will be interesting to see how Sam produces next season.

By all accounts, he is a fine human being and generally likeable. He tried to provide valuable leadership and I think the 2 previous seasons he helped move the organization forward... It was the right call at the time.
Now, under the pressures of increased expectations, that leadership style wasn't as effective with this group of players.

I hope he is traded to a true contender and goes on to enjoy the success of winning a cup. Next season he can comeback on Kyle Okposo Appreciation Day to bask in the glory. I wish him nothing but the best, other than to never return on ice for this team.

True. He was screwed over by 2 different Gzm’s on any real contract deal.

Yep, an if he wasn't slow and his hands weren't failing he would have 20 already. His time is up with this Team, go out and find a WINNER to lead this Team into the next phase.
