Michael Pachla: Building the 2019-20 Buffalo Sabres roster--LW, Jeff Skinner

Michael Pachla: Building the 2019-20 Buffalo Sabres roster--LW, Jeff Skinner
- Michael Pachla

Word around town is that Skinner is the FIRST to be irrelevant.

What it really comes down to is the Sabres found themselves a goal-scorer who wanted to play in Buffalo and you can't let an opportunity like that slip away.

Well said

I enjoy watching jeff Skinner play hockey

he's pretty good at the hockey

he is so overpaid and will never live up to his one-dimensional ways and he also hits children, I heard.

there are some options at that spot

If anyone thinks that not only Larkin for Ristolainen is not bending Detroit over, but that Detroit has any intentions of dealing Larkin, you are dead wrong.

Yeah. Everyone is ready to pencil wilson into that spot, but I think Krueger is going to give Sobotka an extended shot to show what he looks in a scoring role

New GM has to make his mark on the team, look at the bomb Billy Geurin just dropped in Minny

Why would they draft old Moritz 6th?

Stevie needs to purge the old guys. We'll take Larkin, AA and Mantha for Risto and the Lockport twins.

Profit.

Stevie says, "thank you sir may I have another"

but there's nothing left to want

So we leave him on the corner like the washed up hooker he is.

More Profit.

I won't let speculation this wild run rampant in this community

A future considerations trade is the absolute antithesis of a bomb trade. But I enjoyed the comment.

Much like the chair sitting bear, yes, that will always unearth a chuckle on my darkest day.

Mantha at least seemed more reasonable.

Even saying he's unreasonable is not very accurate. It's precisely what this team is looking for. A young multi positional top 6. I don't know if a one for one is even, but if you have a bunch of pieces in there, it would seem like it has the potential to really even out for both teams.
