You think the building will still be half empty if the Sabres are within 2 points of the playoffs in March?

No, it will not.

By "Better Skating" you meant can't skate for sh!t

they show us getting gauthier at 16

That site also doesn't have Isaac Howard anywhere in the first round, which is ridiculous.

Not sure how much stock I put in that site.

Probably wont be sold out, and 1/2 was an understatement on my part.

Pardon me

I would be satisfied with their mock especially if Johnson isn't going to be here
and the fact we drafted plenty of forwards the last 2 drafts

- homiedclown

Ah, thanks for that. I believe that is the one I am thinking of.

Every site is different, amazing the differences in rankings. McKenzie needs to come out with his

Won't see that till near the draft

His comes out like a month before the draft maybe even closer

True, but that will probably be the closest to the proper slotting.

I'd rather Mintyukov if both are available.. He's one of my favourites in this draft

I agree...that's the rankings I prefer.
I also like Pronman and Wheeler from the Athletic for their write-ups

Yelich just hit for the Cycle against Cincinnati. It's the 3rd of his career, wild thing is all 3 have come against Cincinnati

It's a different game, I would always take Andy, but imagine a better skating one. And you know what I meant.
- Buff36

Sure, but you picked a HOFer.

Every player has deficiencies. Gretzky could barely shoot the puck, Lemieux had a wonky back, Jesus doesn't play defense.

Andreychuk stood in front, took an absolute beating, played until he was in his 40's, and only had 2 years where he didn't score at least a 20 goal pace, when he was 34 and 42, and had 19 total 20+ goal seasons.

Vanek I'd give you, but not a HOFer.

Very true, but imagine adding better skating to that package. That's all I am saying, he was already deadly, it would have turned him into a assassin.

It was brought up the last and only time we picked #9 we also picked Andrechyuck at #16 (which we also have again).

Back read or don't comment like a dweeb.

I know what he was talking about I just think it's kind of crazy to say "if only this HOFer did 'X' better...".

It's not like saying "if only Afinogenov had an ounce of hockey sense".

Was "dweeb" on your word of the day calendar or something?

Edit: Don't start, Beady

If you logged off for six months and came back you would miss nothing. Recently there have actually been some very good HOCKEY discussions going on!

But you have the usual suspects sniping at each other day after day.

SSDD.. You haven’t missed much 👍
