Guys.....I'm dru k......but Rasmussen mother Dahlin!!!!!!!! Yayyayyayyayaya

So baker has him ranked 20th overall. Baker also had mitts ranked super high last year. The more I read, the more I like this pick. I'm done with dressing guys like faulk and fedun.

So he's 6'4, has a great shot and plays mean? How's his skating because that all sounds good to me. Second round picks can be tough to project so he sounds as good to me as any. We really do need more higher pick d prospects in our system.

What time does second round start?

So who is the best player that fell?

Which would be perfectly fine. If Montreal doesn't give what Botts wants then hold on. After July 1 and Tavares decision I could see another market open up. If Botts doesn't get what he wants there then please keep him.

I would think it would be a cap hit for the Sabres. It may make more sense to wait until after that July 1 payment and find out exactly what Tavares does before moving him. May open up some teams like San Jose or St. Louis at that point.

So....are we happy with basically a straight up trade of Brady Tkachuk for Ryan O'Reilly? I'm not sure. Contractually it's a clear yes but it'll be another 2-3 years before Tkachuk has the impact of O'Reilly today. On the flip side, O'Reilly ain't getting any younger and this Sabres team is likely still 3 years away from any meaningful run.

Do they still do 'cash considerations' like they use to in the past. Could a deal get done today with the agreement Buffalo would pay the bonus on July 1?

Coverage on TSN begins at 7.

Obviously Casey. He was on a 68 point pace with Sabres last year :flirt:

This past year has been the most trying season on Sabres fans in probably the franchise history. Another down year, one which expected the team would start to take the next step. Fan support really waivered. Then the excitement of atleast winning the draft lottery. The process sure sucked but let's enjoy today with the big selection of Dahlin and start moving this thing in the right direction. Let's go Dahlin, Let's go Buffalo!!!! :beer:

Could we see Reinhart AND ROR traded before the end of today? Should be an exciting seeing what happens. When you consider the addition of Dahlin, today really could be a franchise altering day.

Plus this.

He's doing exactly what I thought he would. Perimeter player who disappeared in key moments in juniors.

And now women jumping on trampolines lol

Yes, and if I remember correctly, all 3 picks almost seemed 'off the board'. Debrusk had a nice rookie season though.

Nice. If ROR is traded to the Flyers, what kind of package are we looking at? I think Provorov is untouchable so no point including him in any scenario.

I'm taking Zadina all day long.

But is that because he isn't the 3rd best talent or because Montreal is so devoid in centremen that their specific team will take the C? Around the draft lottery I thought it was pretty consensus who was going 1, 2 and 3.

I thought Zadina was basically the consensus no? I thought the only reason it may not be is because Bergevin.

Does anyone do ROR for 3rd overall pick straight up? What about ROR for 3OA and Mete (young D prospect)?

This.

Nobody better quote that.....

Fixed.
