TheChimp Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 What was our trade with GCY anyways I missed it. CGY
Robviously Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I'm going to keep beating the drum for Henrik Samuelsson. If they trade up again (back into the first round from the second) to get him, my head will explode.
TrueBlueGED Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 In 2015, we'll have two decent centers, one great d-man, Enroth in goal, and what else? I am annoyed. Sir, calm down. Draft isn't over yet, free agency hasn't begun yet. Still plenty of time to swing a current roster move.
wjag Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 What was our trade with GCY anyways I missed it. CGY Swapped firsts and gave up a 2nd this year
JJFIVEOH Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 What was our trade with GCY anyways I missed it. CGY #21 and #44 for #14
Robviously Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Sir, calm down. Draft isn't over yet, free agency hasn't begun yet. Still plenty of time to swing a current roster move. I thought he was joking. (?)
BuffaloSoldier2010 Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 wow. awesome first round. bravo Darcy
North Buffalo Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Derek Roy is so ridiculously expendable now. :D :clapping: I was thinking the same thing. Any shot they can dump for another pick say for a goalie... Subban???
fiftyone Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I wonder if the Sabres liked Girgensons over Faksa? It'll be interesting to see if Darcy tried to trade with Dallas first, or if Girgensons was the plan all along.
IKnowPhysics Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Welp, we just took two of the first four centers in the NHL draft, including arguably the best in Grigorenko, both with top-15 picks. This will likely be one of the biggest draft days in Buffalo history.
Eleven Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Did I just hear Bettman announcing a pick as "he'll break your face, he'll break your body..."? If not, whom did I hear? Who is that stupid?
fiftyone Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I think it was Pierre who was describing him after the pick.
TheMatrix31 Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 You could tell that guy Wilson is gonna be a total punk.
Iron Crotch Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Welp, we just took two of the first four centers in the NHL draft, including arguably the best in Grigorenko, both with top-15 picks. This will likely be one of the biggest draft days in Buffalo history. I love the strategy of taking two big centers. Hedge your bets a bit. And, a big guy who doesn't pan out offensively can still play a checking role. We've all been bitching for years about how small this team is/was... we've all seen how the game turns into a war during the playoffs and bigger, tougher guys prevail... clearly T-Pegs gets it.
TrueBlueGED Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I thought he was joking. (?) I'm pretty certain Eleven wanted nothing to do with actually using draft picks. Wanted to trade them for current players.
SarasotaSabre Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Semin? I kid I kid! At the very least I'm sure Pegula will get him an interpreter to help him along. sounds like TPegs won't need to get Grigs an interpreter..... "While he initially didn't understand English, Grigorenko took classes five days a week with a Russian teacher and by the end of the season he was able to conduct interviews in English without the aid of a translator" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikhail_Grigorenko)
Eleven Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I think it was Pierre who was describing him after the pick. I hope so. I'm listening to GR, and the description was way off in the distance, at least in radio-world. And it really sounded like Bettman; crappy downstate accent and all.
Eleven Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I'm pretty certain Eleven wanted nothing to do with actually using draft picks. Wanted to trade them for current players. You can be more than pretty certain. I guess the deals just weren't there, since other teams didn't make them, either.
millbank Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Did I just hear Bettman announcing a pick as "he'll break your face, he'll break your body..."? If not, whom did I hear? Who is that stupid? TSN announcer describing Tom Wilson
Robviously Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 Girgensons pre-draft interview: http://penguins.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=634227
deluca67 Posted June 23, 2012 Report Posted June 23, 2012 I think the Sharks just drafted the only player available with the same hair style as their head coach.
