    Default Okposo signing with Buffalo

    Rumors are that he is staying in the state of NY and going to sign with Buffalo. I think he's a pretty consistent player he still should be 60-65 point player in Buffalo agree or disagree?

    Oh - could be a nice fit for him.
    Rising team... talk about a team that could use a sniping winger.
    Perfect fit.
    I'll go with 5 x $7m = $35m.

    Ouch...

    I'm curious about numbers. I could see him being 60-65 pts in Buffalo. Not like he's leaving Long Island (Brooklyn?) and not lining up with a solid C. Either Eichel or O'Rielly, both are solid options.

    I agree that Eichel and O'Reilly ae solid options down the middle, but chemistry goes along way in hockey. We'll see if Okposo can mesh with them. At a $7 mill per year this is either going to be a right price point or a drastic overpayment. Time shall tell.

    I dont mind this at all. Good spot for Okposo, top line minutes on a team moving in the right direction. 60 points should be maintained. Bodes well for Eichel!

    If they sign Vesey as well then suddenly they have an awesome top 6.

    Without knowing the numbers i say that he will be overpaid, but at least it would be a good fit.

    I'm thinking the same, but they kind of had to after missing out on Stamkos.

    Just heard a rumor of 6 mil per, not sure on the term......that's not a huge over-payment.

    7yrs at 6mil would still be a decent deal.
