Unfortunately... well, this weird covid thing happened... not to mention Skinner sucks now anyway.


Everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong

I've been saying it since day one and people had the audacity to say I was wrong.

Some ppl are giving 5 x 11,634M for that kind of stats......with that in mind 8 x 9M still looks like proper contract


This didn't age too well

Not everyone have a luxury to have a "feeder" like Marner is, the only one justified to ask for his bucks.....

He's not worth this contract but he's been insanely mismanaged by Krueger. Playing him with garbage fourth liners isn't helping him and the team, especially when he can do well with Eichel.


Someone bumped the thread again so I might as well revisit this.

When I posted here, Skinner had - 14 GP, 0 G, 1 A, 1 PTS (0.07 P/G), 13:36 ATOI
Through the rest of Kruger's tenure - 11 GP, 2 G, 0 A, 2 PTS (0.18 P/G), 13:57 ATOI
Through Donato's tenure - 19 GP, 3 G, 4 P, 7 PTS (0.36 P/G), 15:32 ATOI

He's improved but he's nowhere near a player that is making 10 million dollars in salary this season. Buffalo is essentially giving him a million everytime he shows up on the scorecard.

Anyone who voted yes on this being a good contract should delete their account and never post again.
Most of us got it right. He had 1 great year, and got majorly overpaid. So many of these longterm deals dont work out, yet few want to admit it when theyre signed.
Duchene, Johanssen, Subban ,Suter, Parise, Seabrook etc etc. Hell even Prices deal hasnt aged well and he is still a top goalie. Too many gms are looking short term, trying to keep their jobs as long as possible, leaving a mess for the next guy.
