you guys (speaking generally) are so cynical.i think its 10 years of hell the fanbase is going through
give it a little while, Quinn could turn out to be a heck of a player.

Does Gary Bettman seem like he would rather be almost anywhere else? He seems kind of pissed.

I brought him up 4 months ago and said the Sabres should draft him, why isn't he ranked higher?
- GilPerreault11


I thought he should be in the discussion for our pick, and that got shot down pretty universally at the time

Oh well, no biggie
We’ll see how he turns out

GO SABRES!

I’d love to see what analytics said take Quinn over the 3rd or 4th best player in the entire draft class
- Pegullaville


I heard rumors this week that they loved Quinn so I’ve done some research. He’s got good size, 6’0 and 175 (so probably fills out to 6’2” and 200), is the smoothest skater in the draft, possibly the best scorer in the draft and at RW is a desperate need for us. Read the athletic article on him, his story is ridiculously similar to Josh Allen’s, unwanted and always needing to prove himself. Time will tell, but if was definitely not a reach at 8. If you saw perfetti and Rossi as they were picked 9/10 they looked like babies compared to Quinn. On Beane we trust.....oh wait

They said he would have been a 3-5th rounder last year. That bothers me.

Like Point? Bergeron? Krejci? And dozens and dozens and dozens of other players.

Lol you guys are missing the point nvm lol
- GERBE!!!75PTS

There is no point. You are wrong. Matthews played in a men’s league and destroyed that league.

Quinn played in the CHL with peers and did not impress all that much. Played as an overage player and performed well.

Joe Burrow was projected as a fifth round NFL pick before last CFB season.

Hey man I’m praying Jack Quinn turns out to be a 30 goal scorer at the NHL level.

He’s our guy.

I just think we passed on an elite player in Rossi.

To me we picked Drew Stafford with Daniel Briere sitting right there on a silver platter

That they are full of $hit.


- Pegullaville

I guess I'm stunned, but not surprised. It's not all that difficult for a first time GM to out smart themselves or a relatively inexperienced scouting directors to see things that may or may not be there.

That said, they have seen more of these prospects than I so I'll begrudgingly defer.

Cause he was essentially an overager this year and played on a stacked Ottawa 67’s dream.

I honestly hope I’m wrong, I really do. I’d be more then happy to be chirped for this for the next decade because the Sabres will be a good hockey team, I just can’t see how this guy is a top 10 pick I really don’t.

- Pegullaville


You could say the EXACT same thing about Rossi
Their bdays are only 4 days apart
