When we were signing Skinner, I said it was going to be a steep price to pay, but also what you had to pay it in order to keep him here based on his play…didn’t want to see him just walk after 1 year for nothing. Glad the contract doesn’t look so bad in hindsight and that the deal has mostly worked out well for the Sabres.
I still don’t understand the hate I see this guy get on this sub in season.
LFG!!?
It’s funny, at the time I thought we gave them nothing. Reminds me of the Taylor Hall trade where they were forced to send him somewhere for a low return because of a NTC. Carolina did an amazing job with their picks tho, those Russians are probably their two best prospects. I don’t remember what we used our pick on, but I hope it turns out half as well.
