Will Jeff Skinner ever play in the playoffs?

[ViktorBaeArvidsson]

I had no idea he never played a playoff game, and the way things are looking Buffalo is still just as far away from making the playoffs anytime soon, what are the chances he gets traded to a playoff team, get bought out and sign with a good team, or will he just have to stick in Buffalo and hope they build a good team around him? Any chance he gets to play in playoff hockey?

I think eventually he gets bought out and signs for league minimum with a playoff team.

Once bought out or he does enough years in Buffalo to get traded with retention, he’ll get to the playoffs

I voted no lol. Honestly tho how far is Buffalo from being a playoff team? They seem to be an awful long way away, I feel horrible for Sabre fans.

His salary will be a huge obstacle of any team he ever plays on succeeding so there’s definitely a chance he doesn’t.

Even if he gets bought out eventually, does he even get another shot? If he can't find his way into regular minutes with Buffalo, what playoff team is going to want him? I'm curious what player has the most regular season games played without appearing in a playoff game.

I'm pretty sure that it's already Skinner actually. I believe it was Guy Charron, but Skinner passed him in games played this past season.
