Sabres should look hard at Fucale but taking him before 20th is a waste IMO, too much talent available to take him with the 16th.
- toddkac

I htink hes a waste in the top 10 of the second but at that point im fine with it. If we can get to say 20-25

guys like Rychel/Erne/Mantha/Lazar could be there and if none of those are then there would have to be another of the 4-6 list of d men from earlier

Myers to move up? He gets you a first by himself. Same with Ehrhoff. It doesn't cost much to move up outside of the first couple picks
- OneKaneOneCup

Myers is probably the only D-man they'd want from us.

If you want that pick from Edm it likely costs us Myers. It really isn't worth it to move up one spot this year especially when there's a pretty good chance we'll be drafting top 5 next year.

not to move up one spot- to move up 9 spots- from #16.

16 and Ehrhoff prolly gets it done.

16/miller/stafford for 7+ possibly.

Stafford for Paajarvi.... straight up.

Miller to Canucks? (e3)

According to my sources within the Buffalo Sabres organization, the Vancouver Canucks are willing to part with LW Daniel Sedin, C Henrik Sedin to obtain the services of G Ryan Miller. Remember, you heard it here first!
- Pierceme69

I don't know, if he really had a deal in place he wouldn't have been so adamant that we're sticking at 8th.
- Sabresfan-365

Probably so teams don't think we are gun hoe about moving up and driving up the cost. Make it sound like there comfortable in that position. IMO COL is doing the same by saying Mackinnon is their pick, trying to get FLA to overpay to move up one spot

go to the website that was posted

I think anywhere in the 1st is a waste.. But who knows.
- SabresFaninIndiana

from what I read I like Pulock and Zadorov. The sabres need defenceman to play with Myers. I was really hoping for Tinordi in 2010 but Pysyk looks like a good one. The problem is it is years away for those guys, maybe Nurse can step in if he is drafted.

Stafford for Paajarvi.... straight up.
- JVince11

id do that in a heartbeat.

but i think that 7th pick can be had. too much youth there and ALOT of talk from MacT about surrounding them with the necessary pieces to take that next step...

your new avatar fooled me. thought it was someone new til i quoted you.

mornin.

seriously is there something wrong with understanding this is the internet and any tom Richard or harry can say what they want and you have to take everything with a grain of salt. if you don't believe it just move on, you don't need to call EVERYONE out.

I changed my avatar to my favorite player but just not the right guy for Buffalo right now....

Ristolainen is the closest to being NHL ready outside of Jones. If we go D, we should take him.

I did hear that Staff's uncle who was the equip manager for EDM did retire though.. so we can't go on that any more..


I mean... after all.... Stafford wasn't even able to recruit his BEST FRIEND Parise to come here.. lol

Or does he?

well sometimes it is hard to comprehend people.....

General rule....Never believe a GM at a press conference, secondly before drafts, July 1st and trade deadline there is a good chance you can believe the opposite of what they say....

What I have read is that...

Risto is the most NHL ready...... but Nurse has a higher ceiling wiht a year in the A.

Morning to you too...

agreed.

i love me some miller- 3 jerseys- new white, old black goat head, and USA-

but its time.

this core's failures really got to him and he turned into a real Richard. he wins a cup on a good team IMO...

What I have read is that...

I'd say that's accurate, I really like Risto's style of play though (great size too)

risto is the most complete of those the upside on nurse is huge and zadorov has a lil improvement on the offensive side.

Seems risto can play any situation
