From the mocks ive seen, lilegren is going top 3 and adam footes kid is going low teens. The only d in the top 20, and BONUS- both rhd. This does not help us.

When do you think we'll need a top line winger outside of Nylander? Probably the next guys to replace at all are Gionta and/or Girgensons.

player x- ror-okposo

okposo is 28
next oldest is ror, 25

if they landed hall, their top 6 was set for years

I'm not the one making the draft selections am I ? When are we ever going to find a hidden gem or stud?

I want to draft in top five pick this year , yes we need one more impact player
- GERBE!!!75PTS

We got ROR for a bust and a defenseman who can't tell time, a lottery ticket and Compher who has yet to play a game.

Plus if we're just talking about players playing above their draft position, Foligno. McCabe is playing better than his draft position too. Guhle is looking promising.

Okposo will likely be here for his entire contract.

Kane will likely be the next one, so you can put Nylander in there, and then by the time you'll need someone someone else will be ready.

Worse than a Leafs thread . I thought we had all the whiners. I think both teams have great futures but it just takes patience. I am impressed where Buffalo is considering how many man games they have lost this early in the season.. The Leafs are about to hit a rough patch having to be on the road a lot in the next month. I still think the Sabres are a year ahead of the Leafs in the Rebuild . Leafs are about to come down to earth . There will be some crying over there.

yeah IMO you only need 1 top 6 after this season, due to nylander being ready


I think we have plenty of 3rd liners in the pipeline

So you think Kane is gone? I think he stays and fulfills his contract. If he's not taken by Vegas if left unprotected.

I'd miss you if you banned yourself for a year lol. You may make the occassional stupid post, but you liven up the place
- chilliard77

skip bayless It up in here

Ok I hated arrow s3-s4 but my god this year its the tits

Standings, if the Sabres finish higher then bottom 5 your banned from hockey buzz for a year, if they finish bottom 5, I'll go away for a year


If the Sabres make the playoffs your ban starts that day... if they are guaranteed to finish bottom 5 my ban starts that day...
- gordong

Oh my.

Ballsy.

I had them finishing around seven or six so this is a tough one but I'll take it lol

And you don't have Ban yourself all you have to do is just put in your location that I was right .. And you have to quote ever One of my post and say I'm correct

Robin Lehner needs to start posting some wins.
He has a 5-8-4 record this season, but he has gone 1-5-3 in his last nine outings. Meanwhile, backup netminder Anders Nilsson has a mark of 5-2-2 on the season and owns a 5-1-1 record in his last seven appearances. Lehner is leaving the door open for Nilsson to get some extra starts if he can't start posting some victories.

Only in Canada.

Don't take it personally, but both of you could start now...that way you're back sooner!

11 D men, actually. Once we get Kulikov back, the excuses for losing are done. Yeah, no Ennis or bogo but every team has injuries. I'm excited to see what they can do, even if Jack isn't 100%. I believe that bye week thing is mid January so that should help
- jcragcrumple

I keep seeing ppl say "11" defensemen...
I can only count 10 we've played this year
Risto, McCabe, Gorges, Bogo, Kulikov, Franson
Faulk, Fedun, Guhle, Bergdorfer

Can someone tell me who the 11th guy is?
Did Deslauriers play defense one game?

Only in Canada.

He isn't listed as playing any games for us
Did he just get called up & sit in the press box?

He didn't practice much last week either. He's probably not going to practice much for the rest of the year. He doesn't really need it.

Nope. He definitely played. He was in for the home opener, that game I know for sure. There were like 3-4 others a few weeks later as well.

EDIT: Also, Bailey and Baptiste aren't on there either. It's just the just that are part of the current roster (injured players included)

For those who missed it:
