Keep telling yourself that

you mean the guy with a Stanley Cup ?
- SABRES 89

Exactly my point, thanks for agreeing with me. Smaller guys win Stanley Cups. Building a team is about more than drafting for size.

Lol you don't trade your top 15 first round picks in hockey for spare parts. There is only one proven way to get great players in this sport, and that is to draft them top 10. At 13 the Sabres just got a guy widely regarded as top 10.

They can get a third line winger for a mid round pick. They can get a #4 D from trading mid level prospects and picks.

By January this kid is going to probably be in our top three prospects. You don't dump him for some limited #4 D.

Oh my god I’ve been hearing this for 12 years and we haven’t made the god damn pkayoffs

Grigorenko over a decade ago was a “top 3 talent”

Ristolainen was “the best D man in the draft, we had him rated higher than Seth Jones”

“Mittelstadt would’ve went top 5 if he wasn’t a high school player and was in the CHL”

The Sabres need a defensemen who legally can buy me a double Tito’s and water

Ryan Johnson will save them
- Hank Balling

You mean Girgensons ?

So he should've gone off the board?
- Powerslave

Well he had no issue doing that with Rosen last year. They don’t need another midget playmaker. Not being a strong skater isn’t going to be good when everyone you’re playing against is bigger and faster. I would’ve taken whatever player was closest in comparison to Plymouth Whaler Tom Wilson.

The key is to keep drafting the same type of player until one hits. Gold!

Okposo and Girgensons are waving hello to you, told you they would be back.

Can't believe Winnipeg got Barlow at 18

“Do I think he [Benson] will be there for the Sabres at 13? Probably not. But there is a chance and if he is there then oh boy.”

“I don’t think I have ever seen a high-end prospect put as much effort into the defensive side of the puck as Benson.”

I dont hate the pick, I don't care who they drafted. I understand unless they are used in a trade scenario they won't help this team for 2+ years

Its funny to me how obvious its been since last December that we are a couple of good players and perhaps some growing pains away from being cup contenders

When dahlin and power sign and our core is officially locked up what will the excuses be then?

Tuchs sweetheart deal is up in 4 years

Member when we couldn’t believe Grigorenko slid. He was the next Malkin.

No, the key is to draft good players, regardless of their size, that can be backed up by statistical evidence.

You mean Girgensons ?
- SABRES 89

Probably should buy him a Emergency Alert Bracelet, don't know if anyone can Hear "Help I've Fallen And Can't Get Up" on the ice.

With all due respect, until he does it in the NHL, it means nothing.
