Description
Carolina trade - Skinner has 2 years left till his contract is up. Okposo has 6 years at a similar cap hit. Carolina, being a budgeted team, does this not only to get an allstar winger long term at an affordable price but also an NHL ready prospect, bottom 6 Center, and 37 overall this year. Porturalski can be removed for balance.

    Antipin did not come here to play on the bottom pairing, If were trading a forward it would be Kane not Kyle.

    Skinner is SOOOO much better than Okposo... and Pesce is the second best player in this trade behind Skinner. This is just awful.

    Statistically thats not true, over their career they are very similar. Skinner may have a bit of an edge with 3 30 goal seasons but Skinner is also 2 seasons removed from a 30 point season, aside from the lockout Okposo hasnt scored that infrequently since his first full season. Youre just biased against the Sabres

    Antipin is most likely starting bottom pairing his first year in the NHL. Aside from the fact McCabe is better to begin with, he also has to adjust to the league. Id much rather get rid of Okposo, they should have never signed him (to clarify i hate his salary and term).
