The New York Islanders select PK Suban.
I had just got out of a meeting. I get back to my desk and instead of input my new numbers into excel, I rush to Sabres Space and see if Jamie Benn fell to me in this meaningless fantasy draft :doh:
I'm not as old as everyone and started really watching the Sabres starting at age 6 in 1991. Game 1 of that Ottawa series is still the best and most fun hockey game I have ever seen (Sabres or otherwise).
Only on a Thursday night when the temperature was over 50 degrees and the Rolling Stones were currently touring.
I have not had NYC corned beef and pastrami but it is now my mission if that is the Hasek to Montreal Smoked Meat's Pominville. Bold statement there cotton.
Blasphemy!! Nobody can make this claim after they've had a smoked meat reuben from Dunn's on Metcalf Street. God their Montreal Smoked Meat Egg Rolls and Smoked Meat Poutine is unreal as well. I need another trip back to Montreal......
All of this.
I should have mentioned Zemgus but where does the list end? The last 3 years of hockey have been , but looking at the new core makes it all worth it. Let's just hope the majority live up to the hype. I also think that pick at 21 will hopefully be a good prospect or used to bring in another piece.
All of this as well.
Yep. This kid and Kane are going to be fun to watch for a long time. Throw in Reinhart and Risto and holy I am loving the potential of this new core. The days of Roy, Vanek, Pommer and Miller are a distant memory.
Really? As I said, you have to add the tirefire Maple leafs to the first group. Ottawa went on a great run with some goalie that love McDonalds. They were a bottom feeder the first half of the year. Boston is getting much older now. Same for Detroit. Florida is getting better but not there yet. Tampa is a good team. Montreal is a flawed team IMO.
