That's a Bit unfair. Strome is very highly rated. The only reason he is not talked about as much is because of McDavid and Eichel. Strome in many other drafts makes a case for top 2.

Id bet Strome would have gone 3rd last year maybe even 2nd

However I've been going to Erie games for a few years and that team is stacked. He does benefit a it from that.

Prob 3rd last year. higher in 2012. That was a weak top end draft class

Hopefully Anaheim has nothing to play for in that last game and rests all its starters too.
- ImThatGuy

They just clinched the Pacific. So if they aren't putting a lot of merit in the President's trophy, then they don't have much to play for the rest of the regular season.

+1 id even take marner over hanafin... and im not that big of a marner fan
- hubie

They pick 4th for any reason and Hanifin is there you take him and run or look to move back a spot or two.

In no way you pass on him for a winger at 4. Sorry.


I also hold on to the other 1st and make a valid effort to get Kylington if they draft in the top 2-3. IMO Kylington is going to be the steal of this draft.

- Buffalo-Sabres

True, but his game did not drop off considerbly when mc d got hurt which makes it even more impressive. One hting I like about strome is he dosent do things that he will get away with in the o that he cant in the league. Grigor was bad at that

Tier 1
McDavid

Tier 2
Eichel

Tier 3
Hanifin
Strome

If they do miss last and draft Strome we could very well be having similar conversations in here next April.

I don't see Kylyington lasting past 15. Right now Buffalo holds 23. I could see Philly or Boston grabbing him.

We are a bottom 3 team next year not drafting mcheichel

If Buffalo does not trade the 2nd 1st rd pick. Jordan Greenway is a guy I would like to see picked.

Big mofo who can skate.

You keep saying that, but you're wrong.

What teams will be worse?????

- ImThatGuy

I said the name earlier and no one was talking prospects, but Konecny? He could be a steal because he has fallen down draft boards because he was hurt to start the season.

This is worth a return.

It's long, but its great. The last sentence is proof that life is sublime.

- Fattony1187

Leafs will be one of them

1 - McDavid
1 - Greenway
2 - Colin White
2 - best available D-man


Would be a great draft, IMO.

Don't care who will be worse, we just won't be that low in the standings. Not with free agency, kids a year older, and a proper goaltender picked up.

Leafs will be one of them

Leafs and NJ are only 2 teams I can think of

Ah so you can't think of any. You don't care because we are the only team that has a FA period and has prospects getting older... Yes your reasoning is sound

- twinks20

Like the player, a bit undersized. Would need to add 15-20 lbs.

Murray, wants bigger guys up front, he has said that himself. So who knows if he fits what Murray is looking for.

Guess we'll see, hope you're wrong though.
