honestly i think it depends on the situation your team is in.. i think most would pick B.. but i get a few out there might take B.. such as LA
- IndianaSabresFan


Best specify.

You're Tim Murray, as the Buffalo Sabres GM in June 26th, 2015. A or B. I think most of us choose B but I'd like to see an argument for A

Another moron that wants to win games but pick 1st at the same time.
- SABRES 89


I would agree with this assessment. Dude has talked bad about the team all year, but will praise them when they draft top 2. Just not right.

I wouldn't make that deal either but IMO I think Darcy would, but then again he was always afraid of getting screwed over. He did try and trade with the Hawks to draft Kane.
- SABRES 89


I heard that as well. Chicago wanted way too much, though who knows what that was exactly, as Darcy seemed to think everything was too much.

Don't bother. He doesn't know his head from his ass. "Edmonton should have picked Seth Jones instead of Yakupov." Freaking idiot....

I'll take him over the bum we brought in earlier in the week or EJ but his contract is bad.
- SABRES 89


Can always restructure his deal. Teams do it all the time.

It's obviously easy to say this now, but I'd take Kane over Vanek any day and never look back.

i would pass on Cutler.. he was in Chicago with a top defense and still couldn't win.. what makes buffalo think it will be different with them
- IndianaSabresFan



I'm not big on him either, but if he is cut and wants to start with a good team, buffalo would be on a short list, IMO. I would rather Bradford cause he is younger and could be some what of a sleeper.

That does depend on the rest of the team you already have, but I would rather B for the Sabres.

Yea, now they think Murray should be fired, like Goose said they are hacks
- SABRES 89


Yep, Murray should be fired for putting Nolan in a bad position, signing Nolan for 3 years, not trying to drastically improve the team to barely make the playoffs and for following a vision of rebuilding a team the right way. Yea, got it. I bet they're among the frigholes that post on the Buffalo Sabres facebook page that read "Murri sucks PEGULA IZ WURST OWNER FIRE HIMM!!!!!111111111111 Weber is only 1 that tries tarde every1 els"

Yep. 1 year on the job, 1 draft, 1 trade deadline, 1 UFA day on a team bottoming out on purpose and he deserves to be fired. What a jerkoff. And furthermore, I loved how they crucified him for saying we aren't trying to lose. The players and coaches are not trying to lose. We all know that. Murray wasn't trying to win either. But imagine if Murray said the politically incorrect answer and said "I partially (most work done by Darcy) built this team to be awful." They are built to pick first. He'd get SHREDDED by national media. I don't blame him in the slightest for that answer. We know it's BS, he knows it's BS, leave it alone.

I don't know that anything would have changed their minds about who they were going to draft. I do remember going into that draft though, that a lot of people questioned whether he'd be able to handle the NHL. Everyone was saying he was too small.

My favorite are the Philly fans that say they aren't mad they basically got screwed out of that pick.

I would absolutely trade for him. If he is willing to restructure, add a year on the deal and pay him as signing and stat bonuses.

He would because it would include a lot more guaranteed money.

Funny that you should mention Flyers fans, my friend is a big time Flyer fan and he said Sabre fan should be ashamed that we are tanking and the Sabres don't deserve the 1st pick. He claims the Flyers do for everything Ed Snider has done for the league and how every year they make the NHL money. I couldn't stop laughing

This is true. Most likely during training camp when the guy we get is not on the first line.
