Speaking of Adams 3 drafts/seasons, though.

He’s added Krebs, yes, at the subtraction of another C.

The pipeline is quite literally barren at C, after the promising on-roster Cs. Maybe one thinks, Thompson/Cozens/Mittelstadt/Krebs are all going to pan out where we need them to and not shift to the wing, finding a home at C, so we don’t need anything at all in the pipeline for years, but I don’t really lean that way

My first post on it 

 

And here is the post I was responding to noting that Adams hasn't had 3 drafts. Holy hell this is why I don't post here as much. I wasn't even trying to start stuff just wanted to note Adams hasn't had 3 drafts.

I reserve the right to have my memory wiped and have no recollection of this post, but here's how I'd kind of like the board to fall if the Sabres keep all 3 first round picks (leading with my preference):

9: Jiricek (extremely unlikely) > Savoie > Kasper
16: Nazar > Ohgren > Yurov > Kulich > Trikozov > Howard
28: Miroshnichenko (but not if Yurov selected because I'm hedging on too much risk) > Pickering > Gaucher > Hutson > Beck > Snuggerud

Just saw a tweet that Kisakof is at the draft... interesting... not sure what if anything it means other than he is not in Russia

I think you’ve nailed it.  
 

just to be different I’ll say

 

Savoie 

Yurov and 

Rinzel 

[Thorner]

Habs and Leafs always have the biggest pregames 

[LGR4GM]

Live look at Montreal with that pick for the rest of the top of this draft...

[Crusader1969]

Bob McKenzie knows all!

Substitute Savoie for lekk and I'm really happy.  Is Chesley a RHD?

[LabattBlue]

Who is Megan?

[Thorner]

Devils GM saying they picked Slavkovsky due to his character. Kevyn Adams is way ahead of you!

yes, rhd

[Thorner]

Wright is ours. 

[Thorner]

Getting Savoie would be so fun I think. 

[LGR4GM]

How do we trade up to #4?

Yeah, this was posted a couple days ago.  Bystedt seems like a reach at 28 and it’s kind of dumb to mock Wright dropping to 4.  Not gonna happen.

Looks like the mock was pretty accurate up to now

Wow

She is owner of Statletes, an analytics company that is contracted with many NHL Teams 

BTW Terry Pegula is not at the draft.

At his wife's side I'd imagine.
