I'm not positive if he would burn the year if he played less than 9 but if we're keeping him all year I'd still rather he be playing then sitting in the press box every game.
-
Just sucks we're going to burn a year on his ELC when it seems apparent the coaching staff does not feel he's ready. But if the alternative is Russia then get this guy in the lineup and keep him here. Also, great work GCOE.
-
Wow. Ok, I guess that's why he's still with the team and may likely continue to be with the Sabres unless they can work something out with this KHL team.
-
This is now your second post basically guaranteeing them to finish last. As bad as they are, X makes a good point that there are a few other really really bad teams this year. The only way this torture pays off is if we win the CHL. Runner up gets you know where. I therefore sure hope you are right.

I think he's full out lost his job there. It's a 3 head committee now and I think he's at the bottom on the totem pole. Surprised he got the goose egg though.
-
Thanks Liger that was a great read.
-
Yep.
-
Kid can sure play but I'm already starting to lose hope the Isles pick will be in the top 10 which would be needed to get him (unless we package to trade up of course).
-
I thought for sure we would take the Dman Ryan Pilon.
-
Thanks for that. The top 3 rankings seem pretty unanimous across most rankings. But the 4-12 range sees guys all over the place. I've seen some that have Brazal in the top 5 or 6 and here is ranked 10th. Likewise I've seen Konecny out of the top 10 and they have him at 5. It'll be interesting to see how this list changes through the year. I haven't given up hope that the Sabres will pick in the top 2 but there is probably a better chance they pick 3 - 8 so it will be interesting seeing where those guys slot.

I hear ya 11. I'm saying to trade away some of our prospects for NHL ready guys at the end of the season. In a deep draft I still want us to use most of our 2015 picks unless we can package some to move up in the draft.
-
Looks like Nikita will be a scratch.

My God the Panthers lineup doesn't look as bad as I thought: Projected Lineup 36 Jussi Jokinen – 16 Aleksander Barkov – 12 Jimmy Hayes 11 Jonathan Huberdeau – 27 Nick Bjugstad – 19 Scottie Upshall 20 Sean Bergenheim – 63 Dave Bolland – 14 Tomas Fleischmann 82 Tomas Kopecky – 17 Derek MacKenzie – 24 Brad Boyes x: 22 Shawn Thornton, 73 Brandon Pirri 51 Brian Campbell – 5 Aaron Ekblad 33 Willie Mitchell – 7 Dmitry Kulikov 4 Dylan Olsen – 44 Erik Gudbranson x: 47 Colby Robak 1 Roberto Luongo 35 Al Montoya

I'm guessing they are scratchin Stratchen but not sure. Ok I know that was sad. Edit - After some online digging that appears to be the case.
-
Nice, they're keeping up Boychuk too. He's impressed me in the two games I've seen him.

Mesarzos back? Nice.
-
That is fair. It is suppose to be a deep draft. I would be more then happy trying to move some of our huge stable of second rounders from years past if there is a market (which I'm sure there is for most of the 2013 class).
-
Ya this is true. He's never going to be overly physical and doesn't have a booming shot but that own zone breakout pass is one of the best on the team IMO.
-
Yep. I think if the Isles keep winning and it is obvious they will make the playoffs that (and the Blues) picks could be in play for a good young player either in the NHL or a year away. TM has said he would like to do this in interviews last year but never really got the chance. I could see another push being made later this year or at the draft.
-
Ya I love Pysyk as well. If our D develops like all of us hope, he is going to be a very good 4/5 Dman for a long time.
-
I'm looking forward to watching Ekblad vs Reinhart.

###### me. There better be some other intriguing pieces.
