Montreal getting their guy

Sennecke reaction shot

... well

Was correct. Good info

There it is Sennecke 3rd

Lev at 2, no surprise.

Celebrini at 1, no surprise.

Seeing this rumor a bunch me now. Sennecke going 3rd.

Nygard is a forward, specifically a rw. He's 6'0.75" and 207lbs according to the combine.

Wahlberg might actually work

I'll be shocked if they make the pick.

Thought that was the Ristolainen pick?

I don't think the Sabres use pick 14 at the draft tonight.

What would it cost to trade for Ehlers? 14 would be in play I assume

Who is that? Ehlers in what Iafallo maybe?

We haven't made the playoffs in 13 years. We haven't won a playoff series since 2007. Yet you want us to worry about what might happen on our cap in 2025 with a couple of RFAs we could easily bridge for 3 years?

That is true, there is risk with Kadri but let me ask this. Would you rather have Coleman playing with Benson and Greenway OR would you rather have Kadri or Cozens playing with Benson and Greenway?

My darkhorse for pick 14 might be Michael Hage. He is a 6'1" center from the USHL who missed most of the previous year due to injury. If you go look at his stats, his half season split gets absurd. He put up almost 2.0ppg and basically all of his goals in the 2nd half of the season. He skates well and has fun playmaking. That said I think some of his game needs refinement which is why I left him off that other list. He looks like he needs about 2 years in college to really polish his game but all the underlying elements are there. I think once that occurs the pace and skill will really improve but again, this is a guy where you are betting on the upside and that the 2nd half of the season was the real season. This guy IMPO has really high yet untapped upside and I think where Sennecke gets all the love, Hage flew a bit under the radar as someone who had a glowup. 14 is probably a reach, but man if you want to gamble on upside, he's certainly got the underlying things you need and it really comes down to development. He'll be at Michigan next year so I have a bit of faith in him.
