That just saved my bracket lol.

Upset brewing? Still the first half but Algeria up 1-0 over Belgium. I, like I'm sure many others though of Belgium as a great darkhorse to win this whole thing.

In my humble opinion I hope we keep all of our D and take a Sam at two and then trade 2 or all 3 of our seconds to move back up for another mid round first and take a forward. It takes D much longer to develop than F and by the sounds of things next draft should be absolute franchise changing. I want our D to be ready when we pick McDavid (or one/two of the other highly ranked forwards). This way I think we are atleast competitive come 2015/2016.

How'd he sound in the interview?
-
The Germans are coming!! The Germans are coming!!
-
What about if he's there at 31?
-
Absolutely. It hurts us short term for the lottery next draft and helps us in the long run. Plus we have a good amount of top 4 d hopefully coming up soon.

I'm heading to beautiful Nova Scotia tomorrow. I'm flying in with my wife and one year old (God I hope the little guy doesn't have a meltdown on the plane) to do some sight seeing from Saturday until Thursday and then have a conference in Halifax from Thurs evening until next Sunday. We've got plans to do some whale watching and will spend a couple of days on the Cabot Trail. My personal favourite items are a tour of Keiths Brewery as well as a tour of the Glenora Whisky Distillery. Should be good times with some great fresh seafood.

At first I wanted Reinhart but the more I read, I would be just as happy with Bennett. We will get a very good prospect at #2.

Who the ###### is ville pokka?? We've all seen how armia has transitioned to na hockey.

I understand the Isles don't want to give Buffalo a good player next year so it may change their thinking a bit into going for a win now approach. However I don't think it's in their best interest to trade the 5th overall. If the Isles do trade the pick they will not have a first rounder in this years draft or a first or second rounder in next years draft. That sounds like a horrendous idea for a team who does not appear to be on the cusp of serious contention. They shouldn't let that Vanek trade completely dictate their future. That's such a Darcy way of thinking. Just my 2 cents. -
Picking 4 and 11 will still bring us one great and one very good player. Having said that mcdavid is the goal.
-
How many pages do we hit before the 2015 draft? I think we have a shot at well over 100.
-
I completely agree with nfreeman and plan on taking a drink every time someone mentions it. We're going to hear it 6 million times but it will not happen. If the Sabres end up picking 1 or 2 would you trade out of there?
-
I love the atleast 3 remark. This daft could seriously go a long way to setting this franchise up for a long time. Cheers to that :beer:
-
Well the 5th would have been nice and I'm a bit disappointed they were able to sign Halak. Having said that we now own 3 1st round picks in what is suppose to be an excellent draft year. Here's hoping for a Sabres, Isles and Blues tank in 2014/2015!! :beer:
-
That's fine by me. The blues have a slightly better chance of finishing lower in the standings with a rookie and Elliott than miller and the rook. That 2015 first is the real gem of the trade.
-
So with the Wild being eliminated I believe their second round pick is now determined to be 49th overall. If Miller does not resign with the Blues before the draft I believe the Sabres then retain Minni's 49th pick. Assuming Miller doesn't sign we know the picks through the first two rounds are: 2. Buffalo's 1st 5. NY Isles 1st (If Isles don't defer) 31. Buffalo's 2nd 39. Jets 2nd 49. Wild 2nd Someone please correct me if I'm off.

:w00t: Very nicely done.
-
Atlanta trading up for Julio Jones definitely worked out IMO but other than that I agree.
-
For some reason my quote feature hasn't been working on here. Not sure why but dEnnis I think you hit the nail on the head. That plan sounds like a sure win for everyone (including yourself).
-
Thanks for the ideas guys.
-
Ok guys (and gals) Mother's Day is this weekend and I have no idea what to get/do for my mom and wife. I was thinking of breakfast in bed along with some flowers and a card for my wife and maybe flowers and a card for my mom. Just sounds so cliché though. Anyone else with any good ideas/plans for mom/wife on the weekend? I may need to steal a couple.....
-
Yep completely agree. I'd be very surprised if he is picked in the top 5.
-
Out of all the top guys that need another shot to leave a lasting impression it's him.
