Seems to me they're way higher on defense than they are on offense for this draft. Not earth shattering news there, but confirmed interviews were basically all defensemen

Love the idea of taking a lot of defensemen in the 2nd and 3rd round. A fair amount of defensive gems have come from those rounds over the years, we should stock up so there will be a lot of competition in our own system. It will be nice 3-4 years from now have so many NHL defensemen that there won't be enough room for them all.

he could be on the board with pick 68

IMO he goes late 2nd like Kylington last year.

Nice thing about Day is he already has 3 full years of CHL play.

He'll be AHL ready in a year.

Apparently He was very nonchalant and unimpressive during his combine drills. Acted like he didnt care and did nothing to shake his bad image

Im not burning a 2nd rounder on him

After the 2nd round sure

One of those players that played at such a high level the year before their draft year..then mades little improvement during the draft year.. still a great player but was expected to take it to the next level and dominate.

If he goes to a team that he "wants" to play for.... He will be a steal.

Well hes not going to have a choice and he didnt impress anyone at the combine

Also his statistics after 3 years in Juniors is not exactly impressive. Not sure how big of a steal he will be..

Trade for the Dman, draft the winger. Got it, Gerbe??

You can draft a defenseman in the later rounds like in second round and still get a solid defenseman that you can develop or we could sign one

If we have a chance to trade up for TK I suggest we do it but I never like taking defenseman in the top 10 at all I hate it

I believe you can get the same type of production from a second round pick if you find the right player

I thought my boy Day was going to just be a beast at the combine and move up in the draft rankings I was kind of scared but he turned off a lot of teams with his attitude so I don't see him going in the second round anymore maybe third or fourth maybe he goes undrafted that's how poopty he was..sucks

- There's a rumour floating out there that a few teams are preparing offer sheets for Sabres forward Zemgus Girgensons. Teams can begin talking to RFAs on June 28th, and can formally submit offer sheets on July 1st.

Just out of curiosity, we know Gus wants 4 million, if a team offer sheets him at lets say 3.5 M what's the compensation?

Anything under 3.755 M AAV is only a second. Anything over that is a 1st + 3rd

Ouch, I think his potential to be a solid shutdown 3c is worth more than that. If Murray gets wind that these rumors are true than he's gone at the draft.

For a 1st and a 3rd he can pack his bag, Larsson can take his spot just fine.

This one shows which teams have the ability to make an offer at each stage.
