    something thats rarely brought up is that okposo has asthma so if it looks like he's dogging it out there or struggling to get back to the bench after his shift its usually because he gets short of breath a little faster than us .

    More worried about what his actual neurological issues are.

    I thought it was determined a concussion caused his issues .

    personally, I think he's a long term hold. Weather the freezing cold production storm and enjoy it over the last 60 games of the year. (I'm hoping he stays ice cold for 3 more weeks until my points league holds their quarterly trades and someone drops him. I might take a flier) Still have him as a good bet to hit 50.

    Funny enough, he was just dropped in my league... I have 1st waiver priority... I am thinking about using it..

    However, I feel like I have too many Sabres already... I own O'Reilly, Kane, Reinhart and Ristolainen... Any pros/cons to this??

    Are you in a keeper? If not, I would consider dropping Reinhart for Okposo.

    I had high hopes this year on Okposo and took him 3rd round (13th round overall) and have been disappointed so far.

    I've been following the GDTs on HFboards and every Buffalo fan despises Okposo and is ripping him to shreds. I want to trust in Dobbers prediction that he will catch fire, but if you can't even get a shot off for an entire game while playing on the 1st line with Eichel, then what can you do?

    Its a keeper yes - I've had Reinhart since he was a rookie, waiting for the breakout - I have him as a 27th round keeper, so the value is priceless...

    in a 1 yr league, that would be an easy swap yes

    you keep passing the puck to Eichel who has the better shot.

    Cons with having too many Buffalo players - When they suck, you suck
    Pro's of having too many Buffalo players - When they're good, you're good

    Same as having too many guys on any one team... problem is that Buffalo has mostly sucked this season

    I'm hoping that they are a bubble team at least and I do not see that as an impossibility. I don't think they're playoff bound but am hoping they end up on the cusp towards the end of the year
