I'm frequently at odds -- often tooth-and-nail -- with littlejerryseinfeld, but honesty (or pretensions thereat) impels me to second his opinion, strongly. The major rationalization for acquiring Klingberg is that he would improve the power play for a team having a problem in that aspect of the game, like Nashville (29th in the league), Carolina (surprisingly, 26th), or Calgary (23rd), all of whom are in the bottom third of the league in power-play percentage. In contrast, Buffalo is 6th, and 4th in net PP%. As much as I would love to have that Philly pick for him (and would accept that offer, for sure), Klingberg is a BAD fit for the Sabres.
