RochesterExpat Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 He was projected to go higher so… sure. Looks good. He was the highest ranked under 6’ forward left so it’s very on brand. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 3 minutes ago, Brawndo said: Discuss He's a 5'11" 196lb player that needs improved skating and hands. Great instincts with the puck and lots of good checking and physical details. He's probably a 3rd line guy if he makes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was joking about the under 6’ bit. He’s solid. As is Helenius. These aren’t skinny euros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Jiri Kulich was 5'11" when drafted, he's 6'1" now. Not all players will grow but several will be 1-2 inches taller by the time they matter. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmel Corn Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Is this guy several years away or is he sturdy enough to leapfrog some of our other older (but lighter) prospects (ex. Rosen, Östlund, etc.)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 For those of us scoring at home, the two picks traded to move up to get Ziemer include the 5th rounder acquired for Okposo. Okposo --> begets --> Ziemer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoPuckYourself Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 I like that our last 2 players selected have physical traits, much like the player we picked up in the deal with the Caps, they are emphasizing that we need to get more physical but the thing I don't like is that we waited this long to get these types of players but baby steps I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Lindy had some say in this. The last several Sabres coaches were all yes men. Thank God for Lindy Ruff. Not sure he'll take the Sabres to the promised land as HC, but at least he knows your team needs to get tougher in this league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
