I thought Buffalo did well, Not A+ but solid

Seriously though, ESPN knows sweet (frank) all about hockey

- poohcrumbs


Agreed. John Buccigross and company, really????

Anyway, solid draft for the Bison, but no A+ that's all. Too bad Smittyx36 and the other Sabre fans with their Inferiority complexes can't see a compliment through all their blind ignorance. I thought we were being very complimentary to their draft, but meh... shouldn't have expected better I guess.

Sabres suck. LOL!

Give it up man, take you and your tiny pecker and grow up!

Leafs fans are giving your team high marks for a good draft, just not A+. Jeez you'd think you'd be happy with that. Apparently not! Losers.

ESPN's online coverage of hockey is drastically different than the TV side.

Pierre LeBrun is one of the best in the business, as is John Buccigross.

As for draft grades in general (regardless of sport), they are meaningless.

I'd give them a B or a B+ if I was being generous.
The Sekera trade is part of their draft grade, as is who they picked in the 2nd round.

They drafted what they needed with their two 1st round picks, but not what they needed most, which is why it's a B.

Honestly, and of course, purely subjective, i'd say B or B- seeing as they made the trade of two pics this year for Bolland. If Gauthier pans out, could be a very good player, but certainly no A or even close for the Leafs.

But as i said before, very good draft for the Sabres. But you guys can't take a compliment so I don't know why i bothered.

Er,.. Lebrun is Canadian so that explains why he's the best on ESPN. Buccigross is a fool. If he's the best in the business, then that's some pretty low standards.

Maybe if hockey players acted more like the convicted felons and murderers in the other major sports we'd get better coverage.

No negativity, some leafs fans are just hilarious. Such as yourself. All of the sudden you guys are an elite team in the league after making the playoffs for the first time in nearly a decade, really lol. Get off your high horse.

Nope, just said the Sabres had a very good draft, but it wasn't an A+. Go back and read the posts which will spell it all out for you, assuming you can read of course. And no trolling here. Just to be nice let me tell you what. We'll trade you Gabrovski for Tyler Myers, just to show you how how nice we are. OK? We cool now Derrik?

Nope, man, why so serious???? Read the post again, said you had a very good draft, not an A+, but given the grief i, and other Leafs fans, got for trying to say so, just gave you what you guys wanted to read to get you all spun up. Oh well, no more compliments. Enjoy your day Herzeleid! Go Buffalo!!! lol
