‘The 2010 draft was known for its goal scorers, not defensemen. By the time the Sabres made their first selection at 23rd overall, the more vaunted defensive prospects had already been selected, including Cam Fowler and Brandon Gormley. Still, this did not deter the Sabres from drafting three defensemen among their first four picks. In retrospect, the 2010 draft is one to forget for the Sabres, who have gotten little out of the nine players they drafted. There is little doubt the team’s hit-or-miss drafting record in the 2000’s contributed to the state of the franchise today.’
