Some of this I don't agree with!!!
- Buff36

That was an impressive collection of poopty opinions in such a short article LOL

Jack for Elvis, Seth, 5th overall and maybe a bjokrstrand.... I don’t know about that.

Trading Dahlin, don’t know about that either.
- Gr8daygo

Jones is probably gonna get some money, and the Seattle thing I better be getting a pick back to.

Yeah, have to agree on that.

yeah.. i don't see why buffalo would make that trade at all.. if they move Jack its gotta be for young prospects and picks i would think

Now that’s a solid summary

Keep in mind: that's what I see as the floor. A 50-point, two way player


The ceiling is much higher.
- Hank Balling

I strongly disagree.

IMO ceiling for Beniers is 50-60 points player.

I hate this draft, I don't see dynamic players.

This class reminds me of 2012. D-man heavy at the top and some non-dynamic forwards mixed in.

not any more

apparently owen power had a dominant world championship

gerard gallant was the head coach

sabres have the first overall pick

gallant did some excellent work as head coach for three different teams (clb, fla, vgk) and never had a losing record (edit: he did in clb)...he also took the expansion golden knights to the scf in 2018

does he get an interview in buffalo?...should he?

Yes! You at least interview him.

I see parallels to the 2006 draft, but to each their own.

he seems to clash with management, often.

f^ck it!

- kingcong39

Only 1 D-man went in the top 15.

This is nothing like that draft.

Know this is hypothetical
What if Columbus offered all 3 1st rnd picks they have for Jack this year.

- TheSabresTaco

I don't like that trade idea at all either.

And to be fair he said that if we were drafting Power than we could entertain the idea of moving Dahlin if it brought back a 1C. I don't disagree with that, but it would have to be one of the premium prospects that we talk about as a return for Jack. You'd at least have to think about it.

sounds like the perfect storm.. maybe he will like Kim's cookie/cookies

and the rights to nathan gerbe

no. If that's the only assets, 3 first round picks in 2021, no.

- Buff36

Counter, There top pick this year, 22 and 23 all unprotected and its worth entertaining.

And Bjorkstrand and Foudy and Elvis?

- Michael Pachla

He absolutely should.
If he doesn't, I myself would want to understand why.
That said, assuming they go you g team route, I still like The Don.

- Slump Buster

Like Kevyn, I will entertain every offer. But to logically move Dahlin, I feel like you'd need to add to him and get.. well.. a Jack Eichel.

Dregs says there's coaching candidates still in the playoffs and in Latvia for the WC. Either way, some require their teams' approval to be interviewed. Coaching candidates that the Sabres are directly interested in.

Not much, but relatable considering Gallant just came up.

well (frank) now I'm sold.
