Darcy on trading a D now after taking 2: "I suppose it probably gives us options but that wasn't the intent." #Sabres

 

Then what? Hoard defensive draft picks, guaranteeing that a few are busts because there's no room for them?

Stupid. That all was nipped in the bud nearly a month ago.

 

I agree, but I guess they would have been worried if he wasn't ready that he'd go to the KHL and never come back. I would have taken the guy since they'll be young and most likely suck anyway.

Says Ristolainen might be ready to step in this year, but not Zadorov. Said they were close to getting to five

 

Good news, everyone! Sabres were close to getting that trade for the #5 pick done.

 

Damn, it's weird how we're always "close" to getting things done though.

 

Just for curiosity sake, I do wonder what the hangup was.

Outside of McCabe and McNabb the cupboards are full of non-NHL'ers. When these two are ready there will be room.

THAT'S 'CAUSE DARCY REGIER IS A GENIUS!

These next 3 picks are the telling tale of this draft. Hopefully 3 offensive players. Still plenty of good ones out there.

 

At this point it needs to be straight BPA, position should be completely irrelevant for players who won't see NHL ice for 3 years.

Marvin, I don't think anybody's gonna try to tell you that you didn't say that.

 

Studies show depressed people are more realistic :(

 

Marvin wins this round. He also won the "where will Sabres finish?" round.

 

2-0

You can't ignore the fact that our entire d-corps in the NHL is still full of players under 24. Myers, Pysyk and Ruhwedel are still under 24. Weber is 25. It's not like we have aged NHL dmen. Darcy ###### up.
