Kyle Okposo when asked by ESPN about the conversation with his family following the trade to Florida:

“…there is a lot of emotion because we’ve been in Buffalo for eight years and this is home and this is all my kids know …”

Girgensons and okposo both play the game hard and absolutely lead by example on the ice.

They lack talent not heart or dedication

Maybe they could have worked the guys harder in practice? Why have coaches then?

You sure? Looks like they have plenty of clearance, this late in the season.

on ESPN The Point says #NHLBruins thought they had something with Linus Ullmark, “so there was a deal that he essentially nixed, in large part based on geography, I’m told.”

Guess it didn't translate with practice and there's a lot of talent on this Team. Coaching sucks, but so did the Leadership.

If by leading by example you mean cycling the puck and never creating scoring chances, I agree. They did show the team how to lose 2-0 most nights.

Trading 2 of the 3, Adams has exceeded by albeit low expectations.

Mittelstadt on Avs: "That's probably the most I've sweat in a morning skate in a long time. Selfishly, what an opportunity for me and the team, I think. I've played against them and I hated playing against them. So definitely excited to join them and I'd love to help them win."

Girgensons and okposo are both try hard 4th line guys, not the reason generally for winning or losing.

The are plugs in a line up

Also, you’ve seen the terrible coaching with phail , Krueger and now Donnie

I’m sure we’ll be instant winners now that okposo is traded
