The tank was a success, the Sabres got a franchise player that is both exciting and the cornerstone to build around for years. Take McDavid out of the draft and everyone would say the same.

Funny how Toronto stayed at #1 last year when there was a franchise player in draft.

The Sabres picked the right year to tank.

Vegas got screwed.

Please not #1 for Philly.

F both those teams. I called Philly.

I'm betting Detoit moves up. New arena and the league wants them in playoffs. Or Philly.

I'd Kathryn Tap dat.

They probably will pick Edmonton by mistake out of habit.

Yeah baby! Now we need the Ducks to knock out the McOilers next round.

Yeah baby! F the Leafs!

Chicago scored 3 goals in the series, incredible.

Maybe he's auditioning for a new career.

Brian Gionta to be studio analyst Friday on NBCSN.

He's also said he believed Murray had a plan on how to improve the team this offseason and wanted to see him follow through. Will a new GM be willing to trade players like Reinhart or Kane or 1st round pick to acquire a quality Dman, or will they be cautious and delay the rebuild for another year.

Getting people from Canada and east to new Bills downtown stadium.

I prefer a GM that will swing at pitches instead of taking walks. Bigger risk but bigger reward. He wouldn't have made the ROR trade.

He overvalued his horses and was reluctant to take a chance.

Or it was that Mrs. Babcock preferred the entertainment and shopping in Toronto.

Kevyn Adams could be in the mix. Stanley Cup winner, already in the organization heading up hockey operations at Harborcenter, and the Pegulas know his organizational skills.

I'd like to see Rick Dudley get a chance as GM. Plenty of experience as a coach and assistant GM.

Maybe they want to try the Leafs model and hire a president with hockey knowledge like Shanahan. Ralph Krueger? Pegula to meet with media at 10am Friday.

Wonder what will happen to assistants, and Lambert in Rochester.

Slapped in the pee-pee!

WOW! Slapped in the pee-pee! I really liked GMTM, hate to see him go, but I understand cleaning house like they should have done with the Bills.
