Rudolph has a terrible arm. He screams Ryan Mallett. Meh, no thanks. This is one case I'd take Lamar Jackson over him. Rosen is the only QB that I'd bet anything on.

Or just wait until 22 and draft Jackson. Talk about a major reach at 12.

I could say any one of the Bears, 49ers, Buccaneers, Perhaps even Denver trading down. Please don't draft Allen. He's going to bust so hard.

I'm rooting for Northeastern this frozen four season. I love the way Adam Gaudette plays.

This should be a drubbing. They are such a "complete" team in every sense of the word.

I would say the only for sure bets: Eichel, O'Reilly, Reinhart, Okposo (no one is taking this $$), Pominville (no one is taking this $$) and Rodrigues are locks with the forward group. The rest is debatable. The only other name I see possibly moving is if someone really swings for the fences with O'Reilly. Otherwise we'll have different options at other positions.

Josh Rosen, the only RIGHT answer for this franchise.

If we're going RHD he's definitely right there with Hughes. I prefer Bouchard and Dobson to Hughes. It's all about what you want. I prefer a shot from the point as well as the ability to carry the puck and offer the two way ability. Hughes is a super elite skater and has good puck vision. I hate his shot, it's garbage, and he's been prone to making poor decisions at times. Not that I would compare him to Pouliot (Van), but he looks like the same type of profile when Pouliot came out in the top 10.

He's been invisible all year.

The biggest problem with the entire novelty was not "developing" enough of our own assets. As much as I loved Murray's brashness, he didn't do a great job investing in youth to propel the team forward. He tried to speed up the process with the wrong pieces. Once he felt we had the pieces in place he made a few bad contract decisions. Okposo prior to his injury / health risks was considered a win-win for the Sabres at 6M for 7 years. As he was coming off a big season with Tavares and company. However, that turned sideways. The worst decision on cap mismanagement would have been Moulson's 5 year extension. However, it's done in a year. I think I've just gotten too used to mediocrity.

Bradford made 20M on a one year deal, and for someone who has as much luck staying upright with his noodle of an arm, he might be out by December 1st with an injury. Bridgewater had one of the ugliest injuries in recent history. I'm not bringing him in to be my starter unless there is a better saturation rate on what he can do in full contact. So yeah, i will take the relative unknown over huge injury risks. Again, the likelihood come year 2 that McCarron is the Bills starter is less than 30-70% in favor. I would say he's destined to be an overpaid back up next year. The Allen fluff could be a complete smoke screen. Allen has an arm, but so did EJ. No thanks. Rosen all the way.

McCarron is just as good as any rental "keep the seat warm" QB keeping the seat warm for Josh Rosen.

I'm a fan of the Star move as he was underutilized in Carolina in the last season plus. He's a solid run stuffer and is in the right place in his career. The coaching staff knows him well, and he fits a need. He's a little more than just a guy, but not a super star in any sense. I like the move. Williams was always going to come back and Bradford is the "right fit" at this time to be a bridge to the non Baker Mayfield (kids a scrub) QB in the draft.

I believe that they're gunning for Rosen over Darnold. That seems like the Bills move. Either way getting a young QB is the smartest thing this franchise can do in the last several years. Amazing maneuvering of the roster.

This is definitely the case, he's been nothing but a class act on and off the ice. I have no disdain for him. It's such a shame when this happens to great hockey players (Lindros, Pronger, down to others like Savard). It's just garbage. He should have the chance to live without complications for his family.

Trade back into the first somewhere between 12-20 to get McIsaac. I have such a good feeling about him.

Both look better on the eye test for me personally over Hughes.

It really was putting a damper on things that I was considering it "okay" to trade a former #2 overall pick. Who has been with the Sabres for 4 seasons, who is a good soldier and wants to write the fort. This is someone we need to build around, not jettison. So I'm back on board. Go #23!

Hopefully he gets a chance to play even if briefly. He showed what he brings in Rochester. They'll (Guhle, Baptiste, O'Regan) be sent down prior to the playoffs.

Names on the backs of jerseys. That's the only thing I can assume. Roenick was a glorified heckler. He really needs to shut his rat faced mouth.

I hate Kadri more than any other hockey player in the league. Next time, Risto, please bury him in the ice.

So true!

:sick: :sick: :censored: :censored: A Sabres fan should never, ever admit to even wanting to root for those asshats.

Yes, this is the best feeling in the world. I will forever and a day, hate these interlopers!

The second trade to Carolina, makes absolutely no sense. Pass.
