So is Vasilevskiy good again? Tampa didn’t play particularly well, and the second goal was unlucky, even if he bobbled the original shot. Asking for a friend.

Is Campbell the right goalie to try and lure here. Before this year the most games he played in a year was 31.

If the Sabres surprise people and draft Kevin Korchinski at 9th overall, is it actually a positive sign that they're drafting who they think is the best player available regardless of position, instead of focusing on positions of need?

Let's face it, Sabres could use better at every position. Some positions need more help than others.

While I love what I see in Samuelsson, do we really know if a Samuelsson - Dahlin as a left - right combination is a 1st pairing defense on a SC contender?
Looked good in a very small sample size, but no we do not if we are being stone cold honest.

I would prefer that they find the combination of very good player at another position of need myself.

And they should be able to do that with 9. But with the analytical department Adams put together it would not surprise me taking the best player on there board at the 9th pick.

I think the Pegulas feel so burned by Skinner that it's impacting everything they do now. They aren't going to walk into that type of contract situation again, certainly not before they show any signs of contending.

You dont put a 9 million 40 goal scoring winger who can still stake on the 4th line, he should be pissed at Botts and Ralph.

Drafts should always be about taking the best player available. Draft the players you think have the best change of being impact NHL’ers.

I don’t subscribe to the theory though that Korchinski would be the best player available when we pick at 9 though.

This would never happen, but I’d love to see Skinner-Thompson-Asplund together.

Our top line got completely caved in when we went against the heavyweights in the Atlantic and I think Asplund’s defensive game could help negate that.

What if Korchinski is the best player on their board at 9...?

Tankathon has Buffalo selecting Cutter, Rutger, and Gleb. Talk about an all star name team.

I remember people being pissed about Skinner's production after his 40 goal season.
We all know Krueger F'd him hard by removing him from L1, but they wanted him to continue to produce at a high rate.

-'18-'19 = 131 High Danger Chances on 268 shots in 82 games on 18:51 ATOI
-'19-'20 = 80 on 183 in 59 on 16:47 ATOI
-'20-'21 = 60 on 111 in 53 on 14:51 ATOI
-'21-'22. =146 on 262 in 80 on 17:07 ATOI

Wish they could breakdown the quality of the HDC's further.

Then saying Lekkerimaki’s pro production wasn’t good when in fact it was pretty good on a terrible Djurgårdens team was confusing as well.

I wish they would have just let the draft experts talk and have a round table and cut out Marty and Duff altogether. They brought absolutely nothing to that piece

Then take him, nothing wrong with adding good players. Gives you more assets to use.

I wanted us to draft him that year so bad but I also do not want them to trade for him at this point.
