Atleast someone outside the top 5 didn't win, I wouldn't want to pick sixth this year. As Bob said there is a consensus top 5 so either we get dal colle or another possible ball in the mcdavid lottery

Speaking of...I missed it, what was the consensus top-10 he gave?

This was probably my biggest fear so that is great that they get either 2 in the top 5 or another ball for next year...

I agree. At the end of the day I am some how okay with this. There isn't a consensus at the top and now the spotlight is somewhat off of us. Could end up helping us out idk but I am not really upset because of this.

Florida has drafted D in the first round three of the last five years.

 

But none of them are legitimate anchor dmen. Ekblad might not be either, but Gudbranson is the only high pick of the d they have and he doesn't look special in any way.

Maybe if we offer Florida Ville Leino, they'll swap picks with us.

 

They would demand we give them our pick and they keep theirs for them to take Leino.

I get the gnawing feeling in my gut that the NHL gods will thumb their noses to the Sabres and they don't get the number 1 selection.

 

Maybe.

Why does everyone automatically assume the Isles will be a lottery team next year? They could easily make the playoffs with some goaltending.

 

They'll sign Miller and screw us out of a high pick.

Because they haven't fired Garth Snow yet.

 

You can have all the high draft picks in the world, if you don't have the management to go along with it then those high draft picks don't mean jack.

Unbelievable.

 

What is unbelievable about it. We just completed one of the worse seasons in NHL history. If this was 2015 we would have fans in utter disbelief right now. Put together the best damn team possible and play hockey. Whatever happens happens. Enough of this draft lottery crap.
