Curt Posted June 27, 2020 Report Posted June 27, 2020 Ah dang! Oh well, 8th was the most likely outcome. Hope Rossi drops there for no reason. Quote

BagBoy Posted June 27, 2020 Report Posted June 27, 2020 So let's say the COVID situation really amps up over the next few weeks. Eventually it gets so bad that the NHL in good conscience must cancel the playoffs. Then how do they decide who gets the top pick? Shitshow indeed! Quote
Thorner Posted June 27, 2020 Report Posted June 27, 2020 Friendman just now said on TV Sabres are expected to do "new and different things" regarding their scouting. Plan to use a mix of video scouting, analytics, and on the ground. 2 Quote

DarthEbriate Posted June 27, 2020 Report Posted June 27, 2020 (edited) So can the new player get assigned #8, or would Rip give him #88? Edit: Wait! Did Rip survive the purge? (Seems like it'd be mentioned if he hadn't) Edited June 27, 2020 by DarthEbriate Quote

That'd be nice. But no way we trade for him (and wisely, too, unless Chicago is taking Skinner and Okposo for him). Quote
