O regan to slot into 4th line centre and baptiste on his right wing if we can get rid of pommer and I am happy with these lines. If we get Zadina and a Killhorn trade happened offcourse :) CJ will hopefully make a push for a slot and would love to see Olofsson going for I also. Not sure what will happen with Bailey, will Botts use him as trade bait in a deal??

hopefully our 2018 first rounder will also slot in there, whoever that may be??

Not yet, seen us in New Jersey last season but a visit to WNY is top of my bucket list by a long way.

The rink where i grew up watching hockey was built in 1938, the only substantial renovations have been done in the last 20 years. It does have a lot of character and the low roof adds to the atmosphere. Plexi glass was installed for the first time in 2011. Compared to Fife ice Arena the Keybank center will be like a palace :)

I will watch other games depending on the time over here. We usually get a matinee game over here on a Saturday night. Stayed up last Saturday to watch Devils v Islanders and then was spoiled on Sunday as was able to watch our game v Boston at 10pm.

Lets move on and start to get things right. Sure Botterill will get things right.

good post, have to admit i was on a downer last night but i suppose the name Kane brings previous baggage and was the return always going to be low? Lets see what the draft and free agency brings

Please someone say something positive as i am just on a total downer at the moment. Can we not go back to 2015 with botts as the GM and keep our draft picks from that year. Dont know where we go next, just need some hope to make me smile again.

wondering what game will be Kane's final as a sabre? not expecting him to be in the line up a week today versus boston but you never know, botts may take it up until then??

If we miss out on Svechnikov, Zadina or Tkachuk does Botts then trade down and pick up Wahlstrom or Lunderstrom projected to go 8 and 10 at the moment in mock drafts? Unlikely, i reckon he goes D and takes Boqvist,Bouchard or Hughes. This is also assuming we dont win the lottery :)

going to be interesting, win this one and we are 1 point behind albeit sens have two games in hand.

Agree

Would love a chance at trying to land Jack Hughes next year but we cant keep doing this, we have to start winning more and hopefully having a chance at the playoffs

Hope not but I can see it happening :(

Would like to see Wilson stay and Baptiste get a bottom 6 role full time, hopefully fasching and bailey also find spots but wonder if one will be used in a trade in the next 12 days?

Well worth staying up for and watching the game. Like Brawndo says if we may end up drafting in the top 6 instead of top 4 if we continue to play well. Wouldn't want see our chances of drafting one of the top 3 LW gone but winning is also important.

Me too

its going to be interesting what way botts goes at the draft. To me a lot depends on the kane trade and what we get in return if he goes forward or d??

He plays in the Elite League, good player. Hard to tell ability wise as our league is quite far behind in terms of quality compared to Swedish, German leagues.

good post

Just hope we still get a good pick but i am thinking that winning may be more important to the team now after the last few years.

agree

6pm game time here, much better than games starting 12am over here and falling asleep on the train to work in the morning :)

Here goes Oloffson-Eichel-Okposo Zadina-Mittlestadt-Pu CJ-ROR-Reinhart Davidsson-Fasching-Bailey Risto-Guhle Scandella-Fitzgerald McCabe-Anitpin Ullmark Johannson

Even better Though it should be 2nd
