Sure Staal is older, but both guys are UFA and MoJo is still 30 so not like he’s young.
I like this for Buffalo, gives them a stop gap on second line C which was a huge position of need for them without having to pay a premium.

I agree. People get hung up on the age but Johansen isn't getting any better and makes more and its only for 1 year. Staal still a good player and the extra cap space might allow them to add someone good.
