My only question about skinner is …. How healthy was he once he got boarded / crossed checked from behind

After that. His game and everything fell off a cliff

Fwiw, according to Skinner he was unaffected by that injury after his return.

Healthy enough to play

Well you buy out Skinner and you are looking for 2 top 6 forwards. Buying out Skinner should be last on his list of things to do. Go get the players you want and Worry about your Cap the day you need to be Compliant

Stick him in the presser?

Scored a hatty against Seattle and never was seen of again

I blame the refs and the fans or lack of fans at key bank

- QuinnFan

Huh interesting. Well everything seem to still fall apart on his game after the hit.

So maybe he’s lying and didn’t want to use injury as an excuse

actually he hit the wall for 10 weeks


don't let the florida air make you become stupid as that is only suppose to happen in Ontario

Lol.
Point still stands.
He was low, low, low on the reasons for team failure list.
They call it a friggin Rookie Wall for a reason..it is relatively common.
He isn't the reason to worry about, he has a bright future...maybe not linear, but he will improve with growth and that rookiecexperience at a young age accelerates it.

He only gets brought up cause ya'll still try to drag his name through the mud on the board. Over a month after the season finished.

Only praises that have been sung are that he's a super smart player for an 18 year old. (Yes hes now 19)

Jeff Skinner didn't

Believe everything a professional athlete says to the media. I got some oceanfront property in Arizona.

Maybe Ruff will ride Skinner like he did Vanek. Skinner plays good when he's pissed off. The u wanna get in my kitchen?, i'll cook you thanksgiving dinner mentality. I like Skinner. Hope he sticks around and scores goals. Lots of em. If he scores goals, nothing else matters.

- homiedclown

No, they don't

18 is legal you crow

Jeff Skinner didn't

- DirtyDan

correct, he got 24, so how many scored more than him


pretty sure 50 left wingers did not, let alone 64

Flagged on accident, apologies.

Could definitely be the case but I believe he said that at year closeout, so was kind of the perfect time to say so if it was hampering his play.

No, they don't

Their next game after Seattle wasn’t in Colorado, was it?

I believe Skinns was tied for 26th with a bunch of guys, Evander Kane being one of them ironically. Fwiw, my beef with Skinner has never been his goal scoring ability, that's great. His issue is everything else, from defense to passing, he just isn't very trust worthy when the puck is around him anywhere else than below the opposing team's hashes.

hope he puts up 40 and you can move him next summer

a buyout IMO cripples this team and cap is not an issue for this coming season
