Glotov via Botts is the reason why Hagel isn’t a Sabre. What a blunder.

Shame on LaNova for nothing more than a quick money grab, and shame on the Sabres/DN for not putting it in the terms of the contract that the product they would be serving is the same as their other locations…not some conveyer belt crap.

List all the 1st round picks drafted by the Devils, and I will let you know.

So how did Timo Meier, Ondrej Palat, Dougie Hamilton, Eric Haula, Vitek Vanacek become “key” parts of the Devils roster on a team built from developing prospects?

…and is it your opinion that this is a good strategy by KA?

…and that is the plan to make and succeed in the playoffs? Just keep promoting from within?

Why do any open slots have to be filled with prospects? What is wrong with bringing in playoff experienced vets in the offseason? Would it kill their development if Savoie, Kulich, Rousek & Rosen(and any other prospects) were not in Buffalo when the season opens?

F Vegas and F that masshole Eichel.

Well, I think my chances of edging you out(best case scenario for me) ended when the Oilers lost last night. That being said, if the Canes go out next round, I am in a free fall. 😂

My stance on this never changes. Dump the lottery and worst team picks first.

Isn’t the hockey arena downtown and the golf course in the suburbs?

Philly has only missed the playoffs 3 years in a row. They have a long long long way to go if they want to one up the futility and embarrassment of the Pegula Era.

Excellent point!

I’ve never heard Buffalo called the “Nickel City”. Queen City is the common nickname.

I am all about BPA in the first round, but really hoping for a couple of blueliners(preferably RH) in the 2nd round, and another goalie somewhere in rounds 3-5. The blueline prospect pool is very very thin.

Playoff tested vets not welcome. Commandment #1…Thou shall not block prospects.

Is Komarov AHL eligible in the fall?

Perfect example….NJ vs NYR this year.

Thx. I still want replacements for KO and Girgs. 😂

Subban is a friggin’ clown. The intermission is for analysis, not comedy.

Oh my. Wayyyyyyyyy over thinking it. They are all one in the same. 😉

Link?

I asked in the last month, but does anyone have the fancy stat graphs on KO and Girgs? I am on the “replace them both in the offseason” bandwagon.

Understood. I just want to see replacements for Girgs, KO and 5-6-7 blueliners, being guys who thrive in games where physical play is dictated.
