I've been convinced to keep the Grigorenko. I'll be wearing to a game in the near future.

I like Dragicevic. I want him to move his feet more as there is a lot of gliding but he never feels out of position and he has speed for sure. Will keep on eye on him for the 2nd round as there is some serious potential with him.

idk if this is actually Tage Thompson but I also don't really care Link to the 9year old youtube page https://www.youtube.com/@tommydangles97

Yes but it is a level of competition with all the listed players. Kulich was in the czech league, the AHL is a step above. Rosen was getting little opportunity with his SHL team which is part of the reason they wanted him out of there. Kisakov is Russian and the politics are important for that. Kozak didnt need to go back to the CHL so he didn't. Östlund is different because his team is playing him and is developing him. That would continue if they went back to the SHL. Honestly at the end of the day I don't care that much if Östlund is in the SHL or AHL next year, I think both are fine.

There were a lot of snarky posts about how the draft guys on this board were basically stupid and Dahlin wasn't even that good and haha look how wrong they were what a bunch of stupids. It was all premature overreactions but a group that loves to point out when someone else is wrong but will bend themselves into pretzels to avoid admitting their own mistakes. Anyways, Dahlin is pretty ***** good isn't?

tiny ***** syndrome Which is why stand your ground laws are inherently flawed.

I don't understand most of this. Stuck in the SHL is a odd take considering the SHL is on par with the AHL so no worry for anything there. Yes I would like to see Östlund's hard work pay off with his team being back in the SHL. That would be an accomplishment he helped with. I have no idea what the Sabres prefer but I would guess they aren't concerned with a 20yr old playing an SHL season. The contract slides another year unless he makes the NHL which is highly unlikely. Being in the SHL or AHL is not relevant to the contract sliding. I answered this but it speaks of a misunderstanding of how good the SHL is. I don't need Östlund in the AHL if his team gets back to the SHL. I have no issue waiting another year and think Östlund helping his team move back into the SHL would be a good accomplishment. You continually using the term "stuck" is at odds with how we should look at it.

Watching some Lukas Dragicevic highlights this morning.

The thought did cross my mind but he really only ever was 43 for younger me.

Think I counted 6 which is not bad for us at all.

Honestly I think Bo Burnham nailed it here.

I've actually heard a few things from arena employees lately that backs this up.

There's this group around here that talk about Granato as just some dev coach... well, development matters. Exhibit A.

Some day we really need to talk about how broken, toxic, awful, and ***** the locker room was from 2015-2020

Almost like Drury is mediocre at his job.

3 years is 2 years to long.

Negative.

Yea I am in this boat I think too. The more I think about it the more I want like a Pominville or a Biron or Dumont, someone like that.

Emily Kaplan with more details on the conditions on the picks

Okay I have the official one now...

Without the official deal yet it appears that it is Taresenko (with $$ retained) and Mikkola for 1st, 4th, Sammy Blais, and I think one other small piece?
