Oh at 10-12 absolutely, but at 6 or 7 you have to really think about whether you're up for taking that risk.

Juolevi might be of interest as well.

yeah at 6-7 there are more complete players available, thats prime Dman position like Jake Bean and I bet even Chychrun, I think he slides down the rankings

That was the most US penalty ever

Selfish and stupid?

Boneheaded penalty there, konecny sold it really well but that was flat dumb.

Nvelcogsdkfsdkj made a wicked save to keep it zeroed.

It's probably a long-shot, but I'd be thrilled if we can take Chychrun. He's the top left-hander we need in the future. I'd be fine with many others too.

I like the aforementioned Gauthier should be available wherever the Sabres might pick outside the top-10...big, beefy winger with 29 goals in 30 games for val-d'or

Hmm.. I think there is a certain player in the detroit organization myers was not good enough for that i am reminded of when seeing numbers like that.

hes such an interesting guy, draft boards have him all over the place, low teens to low 20s, just such raw talent

wouldn't mind a little more bulk in buffalo

oh look there's a sabres game tonight, forgot what that looked like

he would be great...two shots at him should the sabres not make the playoffs this year

here's the quote from jimmy d last may to fox sports: "Very, very, very disappointing," said Wings Senior Vice President Jim Devellano, who saw the Griffins play their final three games, including Sunday's 3-1 win, over the Toronto Marlies. "And I say that with a lot of sadness. Coming out of junior, we had such high hopes for him."

I thought that was a terrible decision by the defender to dive at what should have been the shooter in that situation.

This US goalie is pretty freaky athletic.

Yea i remember that. Having not heard anything about him in the past year i figured he was just still loafing around in the A. Not sure what his skating is like but anyone that can score at the rate he did in juniors can probably score at all levels. Depends on everything else.

he's also playing on a pretty hot grand rapids team as well...from what i've read, his confidence seems to be rising with the tide as the griffins are smokin'...

chicken/egg scenario?


edit: 14 in a row going into the Christmas break

Wow yea smokin is understated it sounds like. Envy that detroit organization.

I am less than impressed with the states offensive push in this game. Canada looks solid but not spectacular and its a bit disappointing havent managed to bury one yet.

Edit: and as i hit submit there is it

Every time Colin White scores i die a little.

Forgot about Will Borgen being on the team. Haven't noticed him much this game.

In terms of importance vs ability to find adequacy, scoring>goaltending.

Lehner needs to be a top 10 goalie for that trade to make any sense.

It wouldn't bother me if white was just good. it's that he's been amazing almost instantly
