that particular clip was the second video in the game below - 12 minute mark of the third, (he had two goals in that game, and it was the breakaway one)

He was also -23 to get those 28 goals. How much benefit do 28 goals do when you also are -23? He also racked up that bad of a plus minus while not even hitting the 15 minute a night mark. Imagine giving him any more ice time.
I was strictly commenting on the skating misnomer and the idea that he won't try to play D.
Olofsson was flat out bad this year. No way to sugar coat that, but it was not due to not trying.
He just looked lost most shifts, but his feet were moving and he was putting in effort. He had zero chemistry on that third line. The weird thing is that the previous Spring he was outstanding for the Sabres. He was carrying the puck and driving play, but this year he would pass it as soon as he got it, and just tried to find a shooting lane and wait for a pass. No one knows why the huge change in his playstyle, but it was terrible.
For the record, I am not saying he has much value. He's a reclamation project currently, that might return a mid-round pick or maybe another cap-dump overpriced third liner with some jam to his game, but some of the info on him in here was just wrong, so i was addressing that.
