Isn't Necas considered top6 almost everywhere? I agree that moving down at that point would be the best if that was the order, but thought Necas was a sure thing to be gone by 8.

I have been keeping track of the rankings for a while and i dont recall him ever being at or above 8. Only recently cracked the top 10

I think they take Liljegren if this happens and they're stuck with no trade partner. But I totally agree with you. I'm out on guys who had mono in their draft season.
- Phatjohnsn



Yea im really only interested in Liljegren if we trade down a tad. Wont be horribly upset if we take him at 8 tho. Would almost rather go with Tolvanen

I have faith in GMJB. The NB trade was a good one IMO

If Murray had drafted Sergachev, Chychrun or Mcavoy last year instead of Nylander, we wouldnt even be talking about trading Reinhart right now...He really blew it with that pick

No kidding. I was looking at some today and trying to figure out who would be left for us and found him at 6 and 7 in two different mocks, thought he was around there earlier on but probably am mistaken. Good to know.

Have him 7th - http://bleacherreport.com...ictions-for-top-prospects

Have him 5th - http://bleacherreport.com...g-spots-for-top-prospects

Have him 10th - http://www.mynhldraft.com/NHL-Mock-Draft/

Of course I keep reading and see that there are multiple other ones having him in the 12-14 range. Interesting. I hope someone lower than us likes his speed.

Seems like an intriguing pick but I dont think I would grab him at 8

I'd use him to move up to top 2 maybe 3 if they are sold on one of the other players or Hanifin straight up.
- GilPerreault11




I could do Sam straight up for Hischier,
but I doubt they do that
I certainly don't want to add the 8th overall pick though
That's too much

I'm not ready at all to give up on Reinhart yet
Even in a "bad" year his stats improved

I think if he were switched back to Center,
We'd see hi assists go up quite a bit as he'd be in a better position to use his playmaking skills
We need wingers for Jack though in order to move him

1. Hischier
2. Patrick
3. Makar
4. Heiskanen
5. Glass
6. Valardi
7. Tippett


This would be my worst case scenario and I would move down at this time

- MCGUIZZY



Agree
Or trade the pick for a defenseman if possible

If it plays out like that & we can't trade the pick,
I'd take Liljegren

The 3 Buffalo jersey''s that I own:

Eichel - here
Rhino - going?
EJ Manual - gone

There is a trend here. Maybe I should go out and buy a Molson jersey.

I am in the camp of keep Rhino unless we get a smoking good deal. Same with Kane.

- SabreWest




U bought an Ej jersey?
Yikes

Maybe the QB we draft next year will choose his number & u can just get the name changes

I could get semi excited about Liljegren. Mainly because I think he will turn pro semi quickly. Not sure if he has confirmed where hes playing next year but he would be eligible for Rochester

Sabres should be all over Hanifin and I'd give Reinhart and 8 for him.

Do you remember when he was "the chosen one" and was going to lead the franchise to the playoffs? Well, i got suckered in on the hype. What do you think it would be worth on E-bay?

I agree that we'd have to do Reinhart +, but that is too much.

See this comes off as a panicky move to me. Now what happens if Kane leaves? now we lose two top 6 forwards and the 8th pick. Hanifin is a good player but Im not moving Reinhart unless Kane signs a contract
