Honestly, it wouldn't shock me (and after recent events i now expect) Miller and Vanek to be here for next season, without signing extensions. We will trade Vanek/them at the deadline
-
I put Mcbain down as 25 because he was born in '87, but if we go by the age of his arteries it is probably closer to 35, so that pulls the average up...
-
Myers (23) - Ehrhoff (31) Pysyk (21) - Weber (25) McBain (25) - Ruhwedel (23) McNabb (22) - Ristolainen (18) Average age of defence core: 23.5

Enroth is not a prospect, but no he isn't that promising. I see him as an alright NHL starter at best. If we trade Miller I think we will really see Enroth's inconsistency - some games he will be very good, others he will simply cost them the game. Hackett 2 years ago would have got be excited. He was traded because he became an AHL back-up goalie because his game had gone to ###### ever since he had his first stint in the NHL. If Miller isn't traded, which he probably won't be now, Hackett is back to being an AHL back-up goalie for the season Makarov is the most promising prospect we have, i almost excluded him from my generalisation, but he is still nowhere near as sure a thing as Fucale. Scouts said they have never seen a guy his age dominate the crease like he does. For a team that for 20+ years has built from the net out we are now in a situation where there is nothing in front of us. No replacement Now people will say well it hasn't worked so far. Well that is true. However, we have two scoring prospects, Armia and Grigorenko. That is it. Our cupboard is bare. Sekera was our second best defenceman and we traded him for an out of shape place holder and this guy. We then chose not to address a position of future need with someone who probably will be a superstar, but instead took another centre. In 3 years we are going to have centres playing every position on this team. Talk about over compensating. As for why he wasn't chosen, goalies are risky. This was a deep draft, you don't want to waste a pick in a deep draft on a dodgy position. We had 5 picks int he top 52, we could have afforded to take a risk I think Sabres' fans are the only people excited about him. We refuse to take a goalie before the 4th round because we think we can just get lucky again. The teams with good young goalies (Boston, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Florida - which division are they playing in for the foreseeable future?) all took them early

"Suffering"
-
A team that has literally no really promising goalies, i just can't understand the logic of passing up Fucale. The only thing i can think is that we thought we could get him at 38 and got burnt
-
McBain is a defenseman. We traded Sekera for this guy and McBain
-
This guy best become something because it cost us a future all-star goalie. We must think this guy is pretty sensational. The good news is now 1/3 of our defence have a history of turning up to the start of the season out of shape. Myers now has a friend to go to dunkin' donuts with

What are the odds the trade caller dies before the end of the fourth round?
-
What about Fucale at 38th?
-
Studies show depressed people are more realistic :( Marvin wins this round. He also won the "where will Sabres finish?" round. 2-0
-
Move up and get Erne, Let's try and salvage this Fucale might not make the top 30
-
Is this inside info or WGR?
-
Montreal will take Erne
-
Jay Feaster's team likes to pick random people - like when they took Jankowski last eyar
-
Erne said he would like to play for Buffalo with Grigo
-
Welcome Miller and Vanek. Welcome. They were probably two of the best players available today, so i'm glad our gm went out and got them Erne or Fucale it will be
-
What's happened to the NHL? So few trades happen it seems
-
Another guy i wanted gone. Erne or Fucale for Sabres now
-
Why are so many people dead?
-
Looks like Miller and Vanek will be on the Sabres come september. Most likely with one year left on their contracts. ###### you Darcy.
-
Fucale or Erne at 16 - my prediction When it says "pick is in" in the bottom left, does that mean that team is definitely picking?
-
Luongo is the goalie of the couvers
-
From 21? Weird.
