Marc Bergevin said he would be open to trading the No. 3 pick but it would have to be a great offer. Says when you go through the pain of the season it took to get that pick, you want the reward that comes with it. He thinks the player they pick could step in right away.

Why? Ones a lefty the other is a righty. Who says you need a forward on the other point?

Would take a major rework, since Eichel is a fixture in the left slot.

I hope the local Sabres fans pack the rink during Jack's rookie camp 3 years ago. Hopefully 17,000+ show up to welcome RD to Buffalo.

When Nick Lidstrom says Rasmus Dahlin is better at 18 than he was, you know you’ve got one helluva player. Sabres fans should be electric right now.

I am expecting a Hedman-like development from him as far as time is concerned.

Odds are Sabres won’t get top pick in NHL Draft Lottery

After Dahlin, the consensus top pick, the draft falls off, meaning if the Sabres don’t win, they likely won’t nab an NHL-ready youngster in June.

Sure, they’ll select a terrific prospect. Still, Russian Andrei Svechnikov and American Brady Tkachuk, two wingers slated to go early, might need a year or two to crack the league.

There is no Eichel in this year’s draft.

If the Sabres end up with the second, third or fourth pick, new GM Jason Botterill, whose personality is nothing like his fiery predecessor’s, probably won’t showcase any emotion.

But if the Sabres win the lottery, Botterill, the team’s representative at the event, will surely be smiling.

Dahlin, who turned 18 years old April 13, could transform the franchise. Like McDavid, the “generational” label has been put on the Swede, who possesses the skills and maturity to step into the NHL next season and immediately be a difference-maker.

It can be argued Dahlin is the best defense prospect to come along in decades.

The worm is turning. I screamed so loud and long that my wife said, "you better quiet down or someone is going to call the cops." The nearest neighbor is about 500 feet away.....

I had a good feeling tonight, not sure why. So nervous when they were turning over card #4 'cuz it was a 52% chance it was Buffalo.

We our the best fans in the world and deserve so much better. This is a big start.

The #Sabres actually won the lottery twice.
Their number came up during the third and final drawing, forcing a redraw, which Montreal won.

I wonder if Botts attention now is on finding Jack's winger?
