I’m not crying, you’re crying
Good guy, I wanted him to hold that cup. Just wanted him to be wearing a Sabres jersey while doing it. Good luck to him in his future endeavors.
Glad that lazy thief is gone.
i like Okposo a lot and his was the first jersey i bought but it’s impossible for me to feel sentimental or nostalgic for any single year he played for us, unfortunately. nice for him to get a cup on the way out i suppose.
Pathetic excuse for a captain.
I hope he comes and works for BUF is some capacity
I’m glad he’s going out on top, and healthy enough to continue having sex with his wife.
These responses – so internet
Class guy all around!
I know some people think of him as a low-effort player who didn’t contribute. I don’t. And I think some people underestimate something else, too. In 2016, he was the TOP free agent on the market (Stamkos stayed in Tampa). He came here. At least for a little bit, he showed the league that Buffalo is a good destination for free agents. (Gionta middle-fingering the Leaves a couple of years before didn’t hurt, either.)
On the ice, he was just fine until he started to age, which we all do. He was rightfully a captain of this team.
Good dude, and a good signing in an era when the Sabres didn’t have many of those.

So glad he won a cup. Just sad it wasn’t here. He’s welcome back to visit and smack the drum to start any game.
I will always wonder how much better he would have been had he not been concussed as bad as he was. He was never the same player after, and as much as some idiots in our fanbase want to lay blame on him for being a bad player, injuries are rarely a player’s fault.
