Johansen doesn't get Risto, Reinhart, or Oloffson without Nash paying Buf something nice to take that contract. 8M isn't that bad for a 60 point center, but it's not that good either and that's all he's ever been. I think the thought would be having him play WITH Skinner to maybe maximize both of their talents (distributer/finisher) Skinner is having a down year, but speaking out of both sides of your mouth aren't ya? Give RyJo respect he'll bounce back, Skinner is done for and the contract is an anchor. Truth is, both are overpaid and trading for RyJo sets Buf back even further then they already are.
No, i've never seen Skinner in his whole career reaching the 9 mill $ potential.
I know plus-minus is a garbage stat, but -113 over whole career is still something.
Like -40 for Risto at least still means something for last year.
Those types of players not "that amazing" defensively you know...
RJ at least is closer to 0. Like -50 career maybe would be fine, but -100 is just not good, whatever garbage stat are +-.
You need to be useful in the defensive zone... Maybe it's the goalies fault, when Skinner is on the ice, idk ...
On the other hand i've seen RJ reaching the 8 mill $ potential, or at least close to it...
But you're kinda right that Skinner can bounce back, as he is not that old. I just doubt it.
Most people hated Palat last year. I told them Palat is not done. I was right... he bounced back... so i concede that maybe this time you're right and Skinner can bounce back...
It's just to me Skinner seems too streaky. Like Gourde in tampa. I can't see Gourde getting back to the 60 point level he reached like few years back...
Same thing with Skinner i jus't can't see him scoring 40... but ~30 sure... i can see that, so maybe next year that contract is "better".... that has a good chance... we'll see
PS: Don't quote me on Skinner, if he reaches 40 goals again haha
