<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>Not about to disagree with your Okoposo assessment. But, as a 4th line guy, he did just fine last year. Having a vet presence on the ice will not be a bad thing. I would say it's why Johnson was signed in the back end, where they were certainly better options, but, there is something to be said about the veteran calm.

Again, I agree with you on Kulich and Rousek. And they very well may make the team.out if camp. But I see Oloffson as a known entity - his strengths and flaws. He is a 20 goal scorer..... and if moved up the lineup, maybe hits 30. Adding in the fun fact that Mittlestadt was top 5 in the NHL last year in primary assists over 60 minutes (right?), it could be an offensive boost if that trend continues. For me there is no doubt Kulich and Rousek are going to be NHLers, I just debate if this is the year..... 24-25, is what I am thinking.

Have to keep in mind, the Atlantic changed dramatically for 23-24. The Leafs are the Leafs (noting I am not a fan of what they did), the Panthers I think bounced back as a regular season force. Tampa and Boston took big steps back - which opens up playoff possibilities for the Sens, Detroit and yes.... Buffalo.

Starting the kids seeing that possibility is risky in the sense of they are rookies making rookie mistakes - which would be highlighted by just how young this team is. Oloffson is just the entity you know what you're getting. And something tells me that if it looks like the Sabres miss going into the deadline, Oloffson then gets more than he does in the offseason.</div></div>

Kind of a big thing with adams &amp; donny was that they said we arnt arnt going to stick with the statis qoe we are going to give the young players a chance to grow into there position.
other than the massive return from philly thats why risto was even avalabel.
olo can score goals thats his forte, kulich can too either are fine but kulich is getting known for playing better in d zone. olo was also benched at end of the year for d zone lapses
