Pronman’s Final Mock 9. Buffalo Sabres: Jonathan Lekkerimaki, RW, Djurgarden (SHL) I expect Buffalo to use the first of its three first-round picks primarily to add offense and skill to the organization. I’ve heard Savoie and Kemell speculated here but the best guess from my information is they will pick either Lekkerimaki or Kasper. 16. Buffalo Sabres: Jiri Kulich, LW/C, Karlovy Vary (Czechia) Kulich’s name continues to rise, and I think he has a strong chance to be a top-20 pick on draft day. I’ve mocked Danila Yurov here consistently and I do think he could be in play, but Kulich offers far less risk and is still quite a talent. I’ve also heard Ostlund speculated here if he’s still available. 28. Buffalo Sabres: Brad Lambert, RW, Pelicans (Finland) I’ve heard a little more Lambert love from NHL sources in the last few days than I did in June. I think it’s still possible he’s picked in the teens, but my current bet is he goes somewhere in the 20s. Lambert for Buffalo at 28 would be a big swing on the dynamic speed/skill combination with a hope he becomes more consistent.

I’m very Ok with Him not entering the conversation for the Sabres. His History at UNH is enough for Me to pass on Him

Matt Moulson hired as a Pro Scout for the Leafs

Official

That’s another possibility off the board

Ottawa drafted Him with the Lehner Pick

Elliotte Friedman mentioned on 32 Thoughts this AM the belief is that Jack Campbell can get five years on His Next Deal. That’s prohibitive for the Sabres

Nadeau traded to Gatineau

Lance Lysowski on the Maintenance Day Podcast said a source told Him that Jack Campbell is not a option for the Sabres. Husso as well, He feels Holtby will prefer to sign with a contender. He feels the most logical trade partner is San Jose for Adin Hill or James Reimer

That makes more sense, Cap Friendly has Him listed as a UFA on His 27th Birthday

Pilut can become a UFA on December 30, 2022 when He turns 27.

They traded the 38th and 100th Overall Picks to San Jose for 34th to select JJP in the 2020 NHL Draft There must be A lot of smoke surrounding Yurov Buffalo at 16 because I’ve seen a lot of people mock him to them

Adams was asked this question during the presser last week. He mentioned that Sam Ventura and the analytics department have a draft pick value chart constructed, Adams also joked that other clubs certainly have different values assigned to their picks. KA said that in most trades involving draft picks, the other GM wants to call you back after consulting His Numbers Guy

It sounds look Forton likes the depth of the First Round to 25-30. I could see a trade up happening.

Pretty Much

Friedman also mentioned that Vegas might move Laurent Brossoit The Fourth Period has the Sabres interested in Ville Husso and LW Mason Marchant. But not Campbell. I’m going with Tom that they are interested
