LGR4GM Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 Lol Toronto. That's the reach of round 1. 1 Quote
Eleven Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 "Easton Cowan"? How the ***** was he not beat up at some Connecticut prep school WAY before ever touching a hockey stick? Quote

But if he's your guy (and you're only drafting in the 1st, 5th, and 6th)... take him. The ESPN crew did say Toronto and St Louis were looking for teams interested in moving up into the 1st. So Toronto likely wanted to get him early in the 2nd and net an extra pick. But if you can't spin the trade/find a taker... take your guy. Edited June 29, 2023 by DarthEbriate Quote
Thorner Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 Not one trade the whole draft is crummy lol Maybe tomorrow. They always hype it up though Quote
Curt Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 Apparently 46 defensemen are going to get drafted in the 1st round and Buffalo will be left with all the 5’10” wingers, just like they planned it. 1 Quote

North Buffalo Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) only 10 more picks til Buffalo again... 7 D so far picked 9 now.. Edited June 29, 2023 by North Buffalo Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 Oh thank God I don't need to worry about Theo Lidstein Quote

PerreaultForever Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 Big D going early. Guess that's not a surprise after Vegas won the cup with, big D. Little skilled guys dropped, and no trades. That guy Winnipeg took at 18, Colby Barlow, sure looked mature for his age. He intrigues me. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Leafs picked a child. Quote

Beau Akey Carter Sotheran uhhh others (I'd have to look) but the Sabres should seriously be trying to draft Beau Akey. He is a 6' RHD that is exceedingly good at breaking up plays and starting a rush. Carter Sotheran is 6'3" and a little raw but has lots of potential and idk if he'll be there at 89 (he is a RHD) 1 Quote

LGR4GM Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 Wait is Lukas Dragicevic still around? There's a guy if you just want to say F it and hope he figures out how to play defense some day. His offense is really good and he is a 6'1" RHD. Here is a good list too: Sawchyn and Akey are really interesting to me. Gauthier as well. Quote

LGR4GM Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 1 minute ago, Curt said: Maxim Strbak? Cameron Allen? At 45 I might take Strbak. Cam Allen is interesting. Idk what to make of him but I might wait until 89 because I think Allen might just not have it in terms of hockey sense. Just now, North Buffalo said: Sabres pick 7 and 13 but Wings have 3 picks right before Sabres at 13 gotta figure they take at least 1 D They did take a defender but I would think 1 more is coming off the board. They seem to prefer Euro defenders. Could see Strbak going on to Detroit as he would fit what they do and is a RHD with some size that might appeal to them. Quote
sabresparaavida Posted June 29, 2023 Report Posted June 29, 2023 If he continues to fall, Andrew Christall would be a steal at 39, even if the forward cupboards are pretty damn full. Quote
