Its 3.20am here in the uk, i am now wide awaked and shaking with excitement. Get in there!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Now botts you have a top pick to add to the one we got three years ago, time to do what needs done and get us back to where we should be. Hoping today is now the day that we have started on the road back. Really happy.

So... a couple seasons in Rochester to acclimate to the NA-sized ice? :angel:

 

Or more appropriately: Yessssssss! Time to celebrate with a dram of the good stuff. Cheers, my fellow 'Spacers!

[sweetlou]

All in for Dahlin!!!!

[LikeEich]

As soon as the camera showed all 3 GMs standing there, knew buffalo had won it. JBOT big smile both others with their heads down and a look on their face saying let's get this over with.

 

Congratulations to each and every one of you. You have earned this pick, and have been deserving of it. October can't come fast enough.

I’m just excited to find out how RJ will decide to pronounce his name.

Should be Da-leen

Can somebody straighten this out?

 

It reads like Dah- linn, first syllable sounding like mop second like gin, but I've heard announcers say Dah-leen.

Yeah but with RJ it could be Da-lynn or even Duh-lynn.

Rob Ray - Dlahla-gutteral *choking noise*

 

Though, at least they don't have to say Svechnikov.

Oddly, I trust RJ saying Svechnikov better than Dahlin.

[French Collection]

Does he get his number or will Rip give him 83?

[StuckinFL]

Just Imagine a PP unit with Eichel, Mittelstadt, and Dahlin. Or even being a defender and seeing Eichel and Dahlin press on you for a 2 on 1.

 

Wait, we won't have to imagine it for long...

[dudacek]

We know he’s the best player in the draft.

But beyond that, is there a young player anywhere who is a better fit to the game Housley wants them to play?

[Jävə Keith]

Hoooooooooowwwwwlllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the sound heard all over Buffalo Sabres Hockey Heaven and around the world. Howlin' for Dahlin!!!!! #30Club

No

[Wyldnwoody44]

Sooo is this guy legit, can't miss, McDavid level prospect

[darksabre]

Give me all the Swedes

[Randall Flagg]

Sooo is this guy legit, can't miss, McDavid level prospect

He's legit, can't miss. He's not generational, but he's the best defensive prospect at least since Victor Hedman and Drew Doughty.

[drnkirishone]

last 2 defense to go first overall. Aaron Ekblad and Erik Johnson

[Crusader1969]

Some say best d prospect since Potvin

 

I'll throw this out there, and I will admit that I was a firm there is no way this is happening guy even 3 hours ago, but does this one the door for Taveras at least a little bit?
