If you really like Demko, you are going to be able to get him at 31. From #23 down, there is not a single team that needs a goalie. Demko is not going to get drafted in the first round unless another team trades up to get him. If I were Tim Murray, I wouldn't take him at 31 either because odds are there is going to be a decent forward prospect at that spot.

Buffalo is already deep at goalie prospects, they just have to hope one of them turns out.

NJ as Schneider is already 28 and by the time Demko will be ready Schneider will be in his mid 30's

Chicago as Crawford isn't the answer.

Of course, we'll all flip out when Demko falls to 31, and the Sabres don't take him anyway.

They got Schneider for Bo "Uninspiring" Horvat to be the goalie now .

Demko would be the goalie of the future something I don't think they have in the system currently.

I would still pass on the goalie, even if he would become our number 1 goalie prospect. Get the BPA (if we trade back into the first) and build a team that is good enough to win games with an average goalie.

I was talking about Jersey, not Buffalo.

If Buffalo gets back into the 1st rd, it should be for Alex Tuch.

I'm guessing if they get back in the 1st round it will probably be a low pick and Tuch will be long gone.

Alex Tuch looks like a great prospect, but Buffalo already has plenty of size in their prospect pool. I would just go for the best scorer available. Someone like Fabbri, Ho-Sang, Goldobin... one of those guys.

Tuch IMO should be the target if they get back into the top 15.

Get him, sign him, and play him in Rochester for the next 2 yrs allowing them to have him for 5yrs on a 3yr deal.

Girgensons was going to Vermont at the time he was drafted too. The Sabres signed him and played him in Rochester rather than have him go off to college. I'd do the same thing with Tuch.

The guys I hate the most are the Oilers fans that don't even converse with the regulars, but mis-represent us by trolling every other goddamned thread.

Of course, on our threads we quit talking hockey on about page 4 so I understand if it doesn't appeal to everyone who cheers the Oilers.
