I would think Buffalo jumps on that.
We save $1.5M in cap space but take one more year, but Price has a better chance of rebounding or at least be a serviceable backup. Skinner I think is dead space.

Also, if you remember from 2010 when Stamkos had 21 goals in 22 games before he eventually petered off.

Steven Stamkos will be one of those guys that I'll always wonder what his point totals could have become if there weren't the injuries. He was neck-to-neck with Ovechkin in terms of goal scoring, but alas...
You could say the same about Crosby, but I still think there's a very good chance Crosby can get to 1,500 points. Short of injuries or him deciding that he's done, I think he's a shoe-in to get there.
Gretzky on Stamkos' 50-in-50 chances
Only eight times in NHL history has a player scored 50 goals in 50 games, so Steven Stamkos is indeed chasing a rare form of hockey excellence. The standard began with Maurice "Rocket" Richard in 1944-45 and only one player has done it three times, who else but Wayne Gretzky.

Tinordi claimed on waivers. Actually a step up for him. Galchenyuk traded a half dozen times, sent to minors. Sigh......our first round legacy. Once great hopes. Scherbek, Beaulieu (actually in the league), Leblanc, McCarron and the rest....the majority never even reached mediocre status. And that's just the last 10 years.

For me it's Giroux. Local guy, we wanted him, we had him in a tie with Fischer, we let the scout from Minny screamed louder than the one from Quebec, one became a bust and the other a superstar. Even the Flyers were so surprised we passed on him that Clarke didn't even knew his name.

Not true at all.
The Flyers wanted Bobby Sanguinetti, he was their guy. The Rangers picked him right before them at 21, and the Flyers were pissed. So they "settled" on the Gatineau guy, the guy Clarke that didn't care at all for & wasn't worth remembering his name for.
I'm sometimes hesitant to heap on praise to certain people when they lucked out more than anything else.
