I can imagine 10 different scenarios, yes. Making the right trade for this franchise is part of the battle. And grabbing a very expensive winger to add to this collection of misfits and young draft picks aint it. - TheSabresTaco
And sending Eichel to leaf's or any other divisional rival is worst case scenario
whatta joke |

at the 10-game mark, olivier Nadeau has collected seven goals and seven assists for the Western Conference-leading Cataractes.
2021 4th rounder (97th overall) - Michael Pachla
I think his knocks were avg at best 2 way game and his skating speed. The Sabres took a few big swings in the draft and you love to see it.

Spoiler alert: we're not going to make the right trade - chilliard77
Especially if we do what you suggested |

I tried to keep that part out of the argument. Other than the initial statement

I'm just going to present the 2010 and 2011 draft classes without comment.
The scouting was awful and the development wasn't far behind. But Christ Almighty this team couldn't (frank)ing draft, for the most part, for like 10 god damn years. - TheSabresTaco
And why were so many fans so upset when the team fired so many of their long-standing, unsuccessful scouts? I had no problem with it whatsoever. |

It was more so going into a draft with no personnel... it was like Adams, the Pegulas and a couple other guys |

I understand you guys want to hit a home run, but sometimes you gotta be realistic.
A trade is going to have to make sense for both teams, and I'm not sure Toronto would even say yes to that trade. Marner is whipping boy there, he's an elite talent and I am 100% down to bring him here and give him a shot being "the guy". Do we really think Kravstov or some mid draft pick is going to be better? |

hmmm...regier pulled off the gratton/briere trade...and the dury trade, and all the trades that gave gmtm the murrency to light his vanity pipe with - Michael Pachla
Darcy's trade record back then was way better than his later years. His drafting after like 2004 was abysmal overall.
I hope Jason and Sam can continue to find big swings in the middle and later in the draft.

I dont understand it either. Burning the whole thing down was completely justified based on the draft record of the past 10 years. |

They had a few more than that. The unsuccessful scouts already did their work and filed their reports anyway.

This serves zero purpose. Zero.*
Kravstov and a pick for Jack Eichel is not or will not be a thing in the history of ever.
*Unless a 3 way trade is worked out where Marner brings more in value than Eichel. |

to pony on your earlier point about drafting, by the looks of it, and a lot can change, these past three/four drafts may end up being the best three/four years since the 04/5 lockout for buffalo...if it continues trending in this direction and the proper development is there, these last three/four drafts could quite possibly surpass all the previous drafts combined |

au contraire, his trades of la core brought back a huge draft bounty for this team |

I'd rather take a risk to get a comparable player to Eichel then sit and wait on the sum of the parts to make a difference |

We're always optimistic about draft classes, but I've had the same feel. 2017 is really shaping up, so is 2018. All of 2017 is in Rochester or Buffalo except Davidsson. 2018, the first 3/6 are in NY. Not sure about the last 3. 2019, the entire class may make it to Rochester at the very least.
The track record far exceeds anything Darcy and Murray did since Pommer and Roy were drafted.

If I post a lot of condescending laugh emojis is that going to make my peepee bigger?
I don't care it's a rival. Who else is going to be comparable to Eichel in a return? - chilliard77
Your idea is a joke that's why I put em'
I mean 6 isn't a lot just like how Marner isn't comparable to a top 5 center when healthy.
Marner in 6 games has an assist this year. Without Mathews hes just another Skinner |
