I'd like Sparks in Buffalo. Loved watching him in Orlando.

Started watching him the year I moved down, followed him after.

Met him a few times at the rink. He is good kid too.

It's Buffalo what do you expect?

Until they have success it will always be it's Buffalo nothing will work out

They're hungry, look at them. Are you cruel or something?

This division between Boston, Buffalo, Tampa and Toronto is going to be a lot tougher in the years to come. Congrats on the lottery win.

If you had your choice of lottery wins, but could only win once, which would it be?

2018: Reinhart, Eichel, Nylander, Dahlin
2017: Reinhart, Eichel, Hischier, Zadina
2016: Reinhart, McDavid, Nylander, Zadina
2015: Ekblad, Eichel, Nylander, Zadina

I actually had this exact thought last night.

It may have been we optimized our return over four years.

The only potential one I would want over 2018 would be 2016, however McDavid can't do it all by himself.

If Dahlin is what they say he is any plays to his full potential I will take having a Norris Trophy guy on the blue line in Blue and Gold for the next 11 years thank you very much

2018 might be most balanced. 17 & 16 still leave you without a francise Dman. 2015 isn't bad, but can't compare to what we ended up with.

I really hope Borgen develops well. Dahlin is amazing, but Guhle and Risto aren't true lock down Dmen like Borgen is said to be. We can use a sandpaper guy who just sticks to playing defense.

If Borgen plays the way he supposed to play, we’ll never hear about him or talking about him.

I get your point, and lets hope so. But I've heard he does like to hit, so we might be talking about him during games.

Seems like you got your draft years confused/combined...
2018 = Dahlin
2017 = Hischier
2016 = Matthews
2015 = McDavid
2014 = Ekblad

He was right, I melded two years together. Guess last year isn't really on my mind as part of this.
