North Buffalo

Now he just needs to get high speed cable hook up and trash his dial up.

Blues win but ROR is pouting.

Really Im an xray, ct tech... seen a lot, ever seen a hip replacement, an experienced a femural head sawed off and dropped in a bucket. Or an small bowel resection with a patients guts spread out on an OR table. I could go on... debreedment during a clavicle ORIF repair, shoulder looks like hamburger.

No but plastic surgery can do amazing things, ask Wyld

True not generational, but lots of projected top six talent at forward 10-12 deep more than most years and a fair amount of guys later that could be there too.

Not Marner?

Gt rid of the driver and yeh!

Now that is a painted image

beg to differ, been in bad work environments where as a result didnt perform at my best despite trying. It made me tougher, but not a better worker. Learned how to ignore the noise and id people to stay away from. What we dont know is how much of it is Alex's ability and how much this effected his play and trust me it did. Took some time feel unburdened, but I became aware of my true abilities once out of those situations. We shall see, but I sensed at the end of the year Alex may be starting to take that next step.

So now that Nyls has had a year to recover from COR do you think we will see a better Nylander?

Dach is suspect and Zegras is more physical imo despite size difference. Agree on other two, but physical is as much about attitude as anything else.

He hits, does pretty well in corners, blocks shots can move guys out of the front of the net. If he could ever figure out how to clear the zone consistently the he'd be much better.

It wont matter... he wont listen any better than Wolfe Blitzer

Newhook has been mentioned as an alternate top 10 and a couple guys here, forget who, early on said he was a sleeper pick. The IIhl tourni bumped him up.... some were hoping hed be avail in the 30s... no way any more.

From Zegras interview and talking to some of his friends at the High School... kid is a super positive guy. Recruited half the kids into hockey on the Foxlane High School team he barely even played on according to one bright eyed senior. He left for prep school after freshman year. Hopefully I will run into him at the rink and get a better sense. He is back home right now.

F OReilly family... stuff right out of typical abusive alchy BS family bullying crap... wth. Ryan's ups and downs may be related to that crap.

Got it wow even with Krebs injury which can take a while to come back from. Achilles are notorious for slow healing. PS always forget about Newhook who I really like..,

Caulfied is a scorer but Sabres already have Skinner, Sheary and Olloffson... is his size a determining factor. Would Dachs slot inbetween Boldy and Caulfield or in front of them. Yes

within your list above before or after Boldy and or Caulfield.

I do too, what if Dachs is around though... not saying I like him... but just not sure if on the board where he would slot. And if Johanssen is avial, does that change anything?

Man I'd take Johansen in a heart beat, is he a UFA? yup

Im just wondering if Cozens isnt there... who and i thinks its gotta be Zegras

Maxed out development and even development has gotten to be cliche. Can a 25 year old improve, sure... even physically... but mentally a person's work ethic is pretty much established unless some traumatic event motivates them, it is what is.

what about this idea:
