Jeff Skinners fate with the Boston Bruins was just confirmed
The Boston Bruins have limited salary cap space to field a Stanley Cup-winning team with.
With the departure of Linus Ullmark, Matt Gzelcyk, and Derek Forbort happening soon, the team will need to add in free agency.
One of those gaps which need to be filled is in the Bruin's top-six who need to find someone who is consistent offensively.
That could be former 40-goal scorer, and former Buffalo Sabres personality, Between Two Stalls host: Jeff Skinner.
Don Sweeney could have sign Skinner at a discount, as he has just been bought out by the Sabres, but he decided to go and sign with the Edmonton Oilers.
WINNER WINNER JEFF SKINNER 🚨
The #Oilers have signed forward Jeff Skinner to a one-year, $3 million contract.
He would stay a consistent 20-goal scorer the next two seasons, and wouldn't regain elite scoring potential until Don Granato's arrival in Buffalo.
This season, he would again underperform though, posting only 24 goals and 46 points in 74 games.
Donny, you know what to do.
