Guess we aren't drafting for a purpose but because "we want Russians"

[pastajoe]

Committed to attend the University of New Hampshire (2022).

[Thorner]

73rd ranked european skater. 88 overall pick 

[French Collection]

Looks like he will be NCAA with New Hampshire.

[Curt]

This is the first off the board pick.  Like really off the board.

Three Russians?  Can someone check on Terry?

[IKnowPhysics]

Played with Prokhor Poltapov on Krasnaya Armiya Moskva.

50GP 9G 21A 30P, 5th on the team in points.  Committed to UNH next year.

Talk about obscure. Another rail. 

I want to hear the back story because his numbers sucked last season, but were amazing the year before. This has Laaksonen written all over it.

The trend this year is getting bizarre.

[Norcal]

Ok the spelling on this one could become a source of future frustration...

Stiven Sardaryan

a.k.a. "Stiven Sardarian

 

I'm so confused 🤔

[Thorner]

There we go: 2 birds with one scouting stone, apparently 

[LGR4GM]

There is some talent left but they better stop drafting random Russians and get that talent.

this one makes sense in the context of a thin scouting staff

I think this needs to be moved into the “could this team be for sale?” thread.

I think he has a Persian rug store on Elmwood.

Maybe the Sabres are moving to the KHL.

Now that's interesting--they already have played together.

Dad forced him to play chess to be a better hockey player.  Stereotypes much, lol
