We have a 33 year old Miller on his way out of town, and a bunch of so-so prospects (Enroth, Hackett, Makarov, Ullmark).
The guy was on an all-star team. Give me a break
-
Anyone thinking Fucale is crazy. They have how many goalie's already
-
Well there goes Erne
-
I've more or less been a "Darcy supporter" as of late -- loved the Hodgson/Kassian swap and I'm not really too concerned with he and Pegula throwing money at Ehrhoff and Leino. Goose for a first was a no brainer. But today was a buzzkill. I'm sure both of the guys we drafted will be good NHL defensemen, but I'm just not sure how it fills our needs-- yeah we added two big strong defensemen, but who's gonna score goals? Behind Armia is there a single "goal scoring forward" prospect in the entire system?
I think he can grab 3 players that can find the back of the net with the next 3 picks. But if he picks Fucale I will absolutely lose it. I feel the same way that this team has any goal scoring forwards. I guess this is what they meant by suffering.
-
So Erne at 38 a strong possibility?
-
How do you come to that conclusion on Ruhwedel? IMO he was our best defensemen since the day he joined the team. Hard to imagine he doesn't push for a spot in camp, looked much better than Pysyk to me.
I thought Ruhwedel looked really good as well. I think he will be better since he was able to get a few games in. I think he will have the whole summer to work on things to help his game out.

Zadorov-I just like to hit people and score goals-- Hopefully he will hit alot of people
People need to relax on the Finnish kid
-
These next 3 picks are the telling tale of this draft. Hopefully 3 offensive players. Still plenty of good ones out there.
-
Hunter Shinkaruk
Falling fast
-
our D sucked last year and we also drafted forwards last year . Not surprising picks.
Kinda thinking the same thing. Plus both probably won't play next year which should cement Buffalo finishing in the bottom 5 unless they go on another meaningless run to ruin their draft position.
-
Now if they could unload Miller for another first that would be great. Need Offense the next 3 picks.
-
Well they wanted players that could pair with Armia and Grigs so go figure
-
I guess they decided the rebuild begins from the Defense out. Makes sense just thought they would have taken a forward with one of these two picks. I don't see why everyone is down on Ristolainen. He will be a solid player but I think everyone wanted one of those offensive players.
-
Wow I guess they wanted another Finn for Armia and another Russian from Grigs
-
Hunter Shinkaruk
-
Terry Pegula can't think of one thing he's ever done wrong.
Now that's funny. But really folks do you think all these picks are just about Darcy? You don't think Kevin Devine and the other scouts don't have a say in all this. It's just not Darcy
-
I'm not sold on the Russian to Dallas. Plus Lindy is coaching him so don't get all worked up folks.
-
I don't know why everyone is down on Rasmus Ristolainen. With Monahan and Lindholm gone it was an almost no brainer. The russian factor is huge on Nichuskin
Wow you want to talk about reaching. Philly and Morin
-
So now do you take the russian at 16 if he is still there?
-
Thanks.
FUCALE!!
Enough with Fucale-- If this team didn't have any quality goaltenders in the pipeline I would say yes but who in the hell is going to score and play defense!
-
So what is everyone's draft prediction at #8? I hope for Lindholm, Monahan or Nurse.

Okay now I can question the #38 pick. Plenty of players that were ranked higher than him still available.
