Hopefully Colorado can hang on and get their game to OT so they can at least get 1 point. Same with CGY when their game starts.

Looks like McNabb got hurt on 3/23. Pysyk's first game here was 3/17.

He can be a top pairing defense man IMO. Put him and Hoff on 1st pairing duties.

Way too early to tell. Keep him sheltered for. While

He's averaging 14:14 in time on ice. I think I saw him out there on the PP tonight. But I think that's new with Pommer gone.

They have 10 and 57 on the first unit and 53 and 44 on the second, did Foligno get hurt or benched in the 3rd?

Myers might be better suited on a second pairing anyways. I say at least for the remainder of season see what he can do with big minutes.

He only had 2 shifts in the 3rd. I don't know what happened though. I didn't see anything in the game that I would think would warrant a benching, but I suppose it's possible.

if you read though early stuff where im on most people dont realise how good this draft is the 8th pick would be a top 3 any other year

MOnahan lindholm would be top guys in most drafts and could go 8-10

I'm cool with him staying around if he's keeping the room loose. According to Leopold it's like the Grim Reaper is in there it's so quiet all the time.

I think the top 3 would be number 1 or number 2 every year for the last few years, if Drouin or Mackinnon goes 3rd, that's the most talented 3rd overall pick in a long time

I'm sure you've discussed this at length but I just want to chime in on the value the sabres got for Regehr and Pominville.

Regehr, pretty good value on an aging player

Pominville - Awesome pull, awesome. I thought it was fair at Hackett and Larsson but the 2013 first and 2014 second made Buffalo win that deal IMO mainly because Pommer isn't gauranteed to sign with Minny after next year. Hackett looks like a great goal tender, Larsson a good complimentary top 6 guy. Plus a pick in a great first round. Of course these are not guarantees and Pominville is good for 70 points a year. I think you got a great return from a good player who generally flies under the radar.

Add those with Myers, Hodgson, Armia, Pysyk, Superduperfreakerenko, and Girgensons. Pretty good future.

Not to mention if things keep going sour you have a chance at a top 5 pick which could likely be your cornerstone to go with that set of young talent.

Next is Ryan Miller and Vanek perhaps? Vanek's contract is rough but you should get a solid return there.
