Skinner apparently wanted to stay close to toronto, when he was due for a contract, toronto had no cap space and may not have had any interest. Buffalo was the natural landing spot, unless he really wanted to expand his idea of "close to toronto". The irony to me, is Skinner had earned a reputation as a stick tapper that didn't put any effort into getting back, AND he had limited himself to pretty much only playing in buffalo. And somehow, his agent managed to get 8x9, which is astounding considering his market value was probably between 6.5 and 7, and he had absolutely no leverage.
