Our pick is in. It's Leon. And what's surprising is the trade with the Oilers that gets us Bennett as well.

Lol I'm just expecting the size of Leon to be to much to pass over as he has the upper level skill to go with it. I'm then expecting some big move to stay up top. S'all.

Girgensons is not ready to be captain.

 

I love the kid, but he failed to engage anyone after the whistle in a half dozen incidents towards the end of the season. It's one thing to play smart and not take selfish penalties during play, but you also have to let it be known that you aren't going to sit around and watch your teammates take sh!t. He hasn't done that yet at the NHL level.

 

His work ethic is great. He isn't ready.

 

This. Wait until Callahan's contract runs out.

Sabres will get Sam Reinhart. The Hockey News Draft Preview had an interesting analysis of the last 10 years of draft picks after the second round. The best percentage to have picks play 50 plus NHL games was Columbus (19.3%) and WInnipeg was worst (1.8%). Sabres were 9th at 14.3 %. NHL draft is a crap shoot at best after the second round. NFL 5th and 6th round picks contribute. Interesting difference. I would go for college grads in the late rounds, you know what you got and they can fill spots in the minors while the higher picks get groomed for the big show.

I am just spitballing but I am guessing Reinhart is that guy. I am fine with that.

 

I agree. He and Ekblad are the only two guys that have had a consensus on them "for months."
