GARTH: Ruff Streets Of NYC

It wouldn't' be so bad without all of the horrible puns....

Why do they need permission? Lindy's no longer under contract with the Sabres is he?

Wow...

The 3 mock drafts by folks on NHL.com are all over the place....

One has Buffalo drafting Puluck and Erne

Another with them drafting Shinkaruk and Hartman

And the last one with them drafting Lindholm and Mueller

I don't like who Buffalo passed over in a few of those picks for 16th.

because we fired him.... we are still paying him for another season or two I believe... hence they need permission.

They all have Anthony Mantha in the top 12.... I was surprised by this... they said that he is the best offensive gifted player in this year's draft and the only one with a 50 goal season under his belt...

If that is true.. I might be really interested in taking him at 16 or so.. and taking Risto at 8.

i do find it annoying to read draft scenario after draft scenario every day but i suppose theres nothing else to talk about

i probably could actually work while at work but thats not really my thing

Who knows, who cares. I moved on from Ruff like a week after he was fired. He is no longer a part of this organization and I really could care less about where his career takes him next. I hope we don't have to put up with more blogs about him after he gets hired.

Sounds like my kind of work ethic.

8th best? 8th pick? That seals it, we're guaranteed to finish 8th in the conference next season.

I'm starting to see a pattern.

I wish you the best Lindy!
NY would indeed be a great place for you to renew your coaching duties.
Great because of the close proximity you can be to "home"!

One real top-flight prospect will propel us into the top 5. Amazing we're as high as we are with no potential superstars.

The Stars, Rangers, or Canucks...

Ruff is a Canadian guy... I could see him picking Couver.. I think they have hte best roster out of the group too... Rangers and Canucks have bad salary caps though I think...

They actually have Hackett, Makarov, Grigorenko, Larsson, Armia, Nelson, Catenacci, McCabe, McNabb, Pysyk, and Ruhwedel as 7.0 talent wise or better

Prob of success of B or better are Armia, Foligno, Larsson, and Girgensons...

Side Note.. Philly, Col, Car, and NJD have the WORST prospects in the NHL according to the site's spring rankings.

Grigorenko has the potential to be a superstar, and you can maybe argue Armia has a chance too. Beyond that who really knows what we have.
