Maybe "he is one of the Sabres all-time draft steal" hype needs to be scaled back a bit. lolThis guy has regressed so much for this season. He is nowhere near as good he was last year and he is trying to force the plays by carrying the puck endlessly. In the last game alone he gave away two (if not three?) breakaways for the opposing team just by being selfish puckhog.
The coach of the team got fired after that game so i suppose we shall see what comes out of it, but with the way Laaksonen has been playing this season he should be eating popcorn instead of playing the highest minutes for the team.
How can he have that title when Murray found us Olofsson in the 7th?Maybe "he is one of the Sabres all-time draft steal" hype needs to be scaled back a bit. lol

They have to perform in the NHL to rise to the level all time draft steals. I expect Olofsson to get there, but it hasn't happened yet. Alexander Mogilny 5th rd, Paul Gaustad 7th rd, and even Rob Ray 5th rd, were draft steals.How can he have that title when Murray found us Olofsson in the 7th?
I was poking fun at some posters who already seem to think he is a future top 4 Sabres blueliner.How can he have that title when Murray found us Olofsson in the 7th?

Anyone watched him enough this year to know why he backslid so much? Not what I expected after how he broke out last season.
Looks like his contract expires at the end of this year? Maybe?
If so, I'd be completely OK with him coming over here and playing in Rochester.
