‘Okposo, who had three 20-goal seasons in New York, has five goals among 15 points in 39 games this season, including only one assist in his last 17 games and a minus-7 over his past 11 games. He has provided leadership in the locker room and has served as a mentor to young players, particularly Casey Mittelstadt. But former Sabres General Manager Tim Murray was expecting more when he signed Okposo to a seven-year, $42 million contract in July 2016.’
