The Charging Buffalo: Bob McKenzie on Buffalo Sabres UFA winger Jeff Skinner: “There’s been dialogue all week long between Skinner’s reps and Jason Botterill. The sense is there’s “optimism” but not to the point where either side is entirely comfortable w/ the numbers they’re exchanging. Expects more dialogue tomorrow”
The Charging Buffalo: McKenzie continued: “Buffalo certainly wants him back and Skinner wants to come back. They have to get the final massaging of the numbers until both sides are happy.”
“It’s very close but it’s not done.
