Well, you brought up Duncan Keith and Patrick Kane. Most teams will have their age differences in the roster - regardless of their power rankings or the lack thereof. Many years from now, you'll look back at this and see that the Sabres will have a season or two of a similar Keith/Kane combination, along with a Stanley Cup Champion banner.

I've had one - a long time ago. I'd rather eat haggis.

Pick #14 (13th player): LW/RW Isak Rosen (SHL)
FogBat replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
So true. I can't get it out of my head how much Eric Lindros cost himself out of a Stanley Cup Championship simply because he refused to play for the Quebec Nordiques. With everything it took to get him traded out of Quebec City, and with all of the pieces that came together going back the other way (complete with a franchise relocation, along with getting one of the most feared fighters at the time in Chris Simon), he lost out big time. So, yes, Isak Rosen may be a bit small. However, Owen Power is much bigger. -

It goes without saying that some forum members are way more inside hockey than others. The others embarrass themselves by pretending to know more than they really do, and insult the intelligence of those who really know what's going on. Having said that, I'll be one of the first to acknowledge that I don't have nearly the hockey smarts of the inside hockey guys - and I probably never will. Nonetheless, I'm not going to sh!t a brick in my pants just because we didn't get the right player - unlike someone else on the draft thread who might as well as taken a dump in his trousers before having a stroke followed by a meltdown over our first round picks. -
Have yourself a good night.

Wow. If that's how you feel, then all the best to you. However, I have a feeling that this conversation may be revisited soon, and you may be forced to eat some humble pie.

And then there are some who are quite a bit older who yet have a glimmer of hope that we'll be back in the thick of things.

It's way too soon to have a meltdown over these picks.

Thanks for the reminder. We have to wait and see. It's not the end of the world. Did your dog die?

I think you're overreacting. This isn't the 3rd OT in Game 6 of the 99 Cup Finals.

In retrospect?

Dallas and Detroit swapped picks. 15 to 23. Interesting.

You called for a forward. You got him.

Depends on the color of paint.

Yup. We've been there and done that. We don't need a redux.

Stiff and wooden?

I say Wallstedt.

The ugly XX isn't turning you on, huh?

But we had a hunch that Risto would be gone, and he was.

4 Dmen picked in the top 8

Or they might not go anywhere.
