There's no doubt that should the Sabres take Draisaitl, they are going to have to start him on the wing.

Probably, which would be fine IMO.

I still have hope for Grigorenko too, even if he's a future winger. The guy has top notch talent.

That's basically camouflage for that area of WNY.

did you do the F on purpose

pick Draisatil and he stays in Jrs 2 more years ..

his skating just bugs the poop out of me

Everyone get comfortable, its draft day.

Kopitar esque?

Call me cowardly but I prefer them to stay safe with this pick, I'd be happy with a Krejci for this draft (and then another centre in 2015).

The one thing I do really like about Sam Reinhart, is that his responsible 2 way game is drawing comparisons to Kopitar, Towes, & Bergeron...


And while none of those guys is ever gonna lead the league in scoring, each one has been a two-way pillar for a Cup raising club. Those types of players are important cogs for championship winning teams.

Soap box rant: I don't get draft parties. Far be it from me to tell someone they can't have a good time, but I fail to see the fun in going to the arena, buying overpriced beer/concessions, and listen to Jeremy White lecture fans over the loudspeaker about how the Sabres are finally doing what they should have been doing years ago. I fully plan on turning the draft on, watching the Sabres pick, and then doing something else. If I get a text/alert that the Sabres traded back into the first round, I'll turn it back on. If I end up at a bar tonight, I'll stop paying attention after 2.

I still say we're going to be asking whatever happened to that guy five years from now, assuming Buffalo doesn't pick him.

No

Cap numbers seem to be at $68 Million next season per:

Renaud Lavoie ‏@renlavoietva · 28s
Right now the cap for next season will be at $68M and that's causing problems. But wait ! NHL and NHLPA are still talking. Final # to come.

This could really help Murray getting some bad contract and more picks though!

That's why I'm going to a bar with good food. Buying reasonably priced good beer, and listen to other people lecture me about how the Sabres should sign a bunch of free agents and try and make the playoffs next year.

I'll be outside Bison field till around 7.

I cut the wings up and have them marinating in garlic, salt-pepper and olive oil! Grill 20 min take off - shake with Franks/butter and than back in the grill for 5 min? Sound right?

NHL is changing things up like I said before! Watch TM the next couple of days, including the FA period!

And then they tell you why Pegula shouldn't buy the Bills because they will come in last place.

@TSNBobMcKenzie: RT @Real_ESPNLeBrun: Anaheim will trade Bonino, Sbisa plus 24th overall pick and teams will swap third-rounders once deal goes through
