They're whoring him out today.

It was kind of cool to see Lemieux even get stopped by Ekblad when taken too.

Maybe it's voluntary. He's probably legitimately excited.

Hope they take him at 49.


IMO might be the steal of the draft.


Like a Forsberg Lite.

Who played in the third tier of Swedish hockey last year.

They just gave one of the fiery guys in the draft more fuel.


jr you're gonna love the pick.

Lemieux has an interesting disposition. He's either a cocky duche or exactly what we need. I think the later.

I like the Lemieux pick but I am at a loss to Cornel
- Orphen22

Cornel ranked 41st on TSN's list compiled by McKenzie.

Lemieux sounds like he's pissed at NJ.

Hopefully Murray talks about his picks and why he chose them some time after the draft. If love to know why he chose Lemieux over Barbashev.

Lemieux "I am a firey guy and these other teams just gave me more fire" (paraphrased) I like!!!

edit: late, damn you DD!!!

Because he and his scouts liked Lemieux better obviously

Brendan Lemeiux on being asked about not being picked in the first round: "I consider myself one of the most fiery guys in the draft and they just gave me more fire."

Oh My!

Lemeiux-Girgensons-Compher line in the future sounds scary.

Obviously, I just want to know why.

It's a solid pick, I won't complain.

2 biggest pests I have ever seen in the NHL was Probert and Lemieux's dad

He's going to work his ass off to make this team, just a feeling I get from his attitude.

Vaclav Karabacek.

It's a solid pick, I won't complain.

Still feel like we could've gotten him at 39. In TM We Trust I guess.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun
Sabres trade pick 39 to Wash for picks 44 and 74
- TerryPegula

like it...am really liking the Latvian connection in the middle of the third round--edgars kulda, maybe?

Spotty internet connection down here besides Lemeiux who else did we take?

I doubt that.

Still don't understand the pick. Barbashev is Lemieux with more skill. And who the hel is Eric Cornel.
- LetsGoBuffalo75

History show Murray is not likely to pick Russians . Right or wrong.

No way he would have gotten past NJ.

We have many viable prospects right now. We aren't even close to done, not to mention next year. We will end up packaging some of these guys later and or trading up with our picks next year. This is quite the rebuild. Wish I had seasons.
