I dont want to spoil it for others to guess but

I can definitely think of one. The other two I think I know. Did one of them leave and then come back?

I think in Pronman's list of prospects (not actual players, so OP is not in there) we had 7 in the top 100. Considering we have a pretty full roster now, that is exciting to think about (and yes, we should move one/some for help now).

Here's Dobber's list. Contradicts itself, including guys that it doesn't rank as prospects.

Owen Power
Jack Quinn
Devon Levi
J.J. Peterka
Jiri Kulich (54)
Matt Savoie (50)
Noah Ostlund (77)
Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen
Isak Rosen (113)
Ryan Johnson
Prokhtor Poltapov
Viktor Neuchev
Viljami Marjala
Oliver Nadeau
Ryan Davis

Was just curious on their ranking. No secret I'd move guys. This team is ready to compete now and the system doesn't do much to address their weaknesses.

That was the one I missed. Chokin Jochen feels like he was drafted here even though he wasn't

Yeah my other thought were Phil the thrill and lindy. But they were over 40 years ago.

Ottawa's GM said that they probably won't be able to obtain a first round draft pick. He then went on to say that its ok that they don't have one based on their evaluations.....

It should be interesting to see how they fill out the rest of that roster. CapFriendly says that they have 14 players under contract and 23 mill in space. Meier's deal will eat up 8.5 of that.

Three years later, it is fascinating to see how the players that were either offered to us or not available to us in an Eichel trade. The Ducks are letting Comtois walk.

Is he a buy low candidate, wonder if Granato could do anything with him.

If the Sabres offer him a contract would he still be an RFA?

6'2" 214lbs - would be an interesting player to see if Don Meatball could revive him.

The Sabres could've not signed Okposo or Girgs and filled the bottom line with cap relief players with more promise, but vibes.

Kilorn looked really good in the playoffs. Thoughts on adding him?

I don't think you're putting a guy like Comtois on the 4th line

Defensive liability or Defensive responsibility.... I'll take the latter

I think he's worth taking a shot on. Something went terribly wrong the past two years but there is some talent. Don't think the Sabres have room though

That shows you how little he was worth. Philly desperately trying to rid themselves of bad contracts.

Buffalo is where players that are sinking into their NHL graves go to restart. With all the players added based off of being a bad fit in other organizations, still have a lot of promise, he sure fits the bill.
