Lets assume Sabres trade Miller and plan to take a serious run at finishing last in 2014-15 and getting either McDavid or Eichel who are both C's. Does this put Dal Colle to the top of the wish list? I'm good with Sabres getting a top 4 pick this year. Doesn't seem to be much seperation between Reinhart, Dal Colle, Bennett. I'll assume Ekblad is picked in top 4 leaving one of the 3 top forwards to the Sabres. Magic number for this scenario is 47. Tank Nation Strong!

You can't be done now! the biggest prize for tanking will come next year not this. 15 more months of tanking could lead to 10 years of contending for a cup, not just making the playoffs. I've been watching this team for close to 40 years. 1 more full season of bottom feeding is nothing in the grand scheme of things.

What are your thoughts, since the Islanders pick is top 10 procted and assuming they finish bottom 5 this year, do we wan them to keep the pick and then we have 2 tickets in the Conner McDavid sweepstakes. Or do we prefer getting two picks in the top 5 this year? I'm leaning towards 2 tickets for the 2015 draft but would be interested in what others think.
