I think the Avalanche had an enormous day yesterday. They traded their problem child into Grigs, Zads, Compher, drafted Rantanen, got Soderberg from Bruins and got cap relief.

Knowing he is only 23, has two years left on his contract and then is an RFA makes this seem a lot better in my eyes.

Buffalo overpaid.. But let's see how it works out. All of a sudden, Buffalo is strong down the middle. Does Reinhart even crack the lineup this year?

What do we know about McGinn? Anything.. What is he, a forward I presume?

After Eichel is selected, there is literally no reason to watch any more of the draft today... Who'da'thunk'it

Kane, Bogosian, Eichel, RoR and Lehrer... Now that is changing a franchise in a hurry

We'll be putting lipstick on this pig for a long, long, time. This is the draft I will judge GMTM by. So far, he has handed out draft picks like a drunken sailor.

Interesting fact I never knew.

draft a goalie... yep .. round 1, pick 2.... or round 2, pick 1

This advice was brought to you by the criminology major

Actually it says CONNOR MCDAVID JACK EICHEL

As fruit of the tank, yeah you all knew we were doing it, the Sabres select, oh hey, thanks for the nice suite, real comfy.. As I was saying, since the lottery was rigged against us and we can't select first and the pick we really wanted is now gone to that tundra wasteland for hockey players and number one picks, oh yea, high Mom, the Sabres have no choice but to pick the consolation prize for making our fans suffer through what can only be described as absymal hockey. A promise begun by the previous regime and completed by me, the Sabres select the only thing that makes sense.. With the number two pick in the draft, the Sabres would like to thanks the league for jobbing us, but see we knew, I knew who we were getting all along and we now pick... Ding ... time... The Arizona Coyotes select Jack Eichel

Recently discovered they have Columbo. They have seven seasons of the show. This will resonate with certain members of this board. We grew up watching this. I've started back through, from the beginning. Definitely low def. First episode was 1971, 1971! Love looking at the cars, the technology (did you know they had remote controls of TVs depicted, even way back then, and, it didn't even have a wire). Meals in diners costs $1.25. Still waiting to see the gas prices of 32 cents. That's as low as I remember. Other things I notice. No bodies bleed on carpet when shot. I guess blood evidence got introduced later. Finger prints are pretty shoddy too. No worry about fiber evidence either. No cameras to capture everything. Rotary phones and pay phones everywhere that cost a dime. I clearly remember the dime.

Eichel vs McDavid should be the opener.

Why, no happy ending?

Am I the only one who first read the logo as be nuts?

I went with zero, zip, nada, nil, zlich,none, naught, nix

Or since he has been in contact with White Walkers, maybe he wakes up with blue eyes..

Pretty clear GMTM does not believe that the Sabres current roster of goal tenders is worth spit Also, DDB made a nice potted plant during that session.

How about GMTM and GMTM wannabe? Or GMTM the sequel

au contraire mon frere I really enjoy hockey. But when the weather is nice and the choice is to be outdoors, it can't compete. I watched the first couple of rounds, but then the urge to get active again overwhelmed my desire to sit and watch hockey. I was in Yellowstone Park for a couple of the games.. Hmmm Yellowstone or hockey.. No brainer. I don't doubt they were great to watch, but so were bear, elk, moose and bison.

I got a genuine laugh out of this. Might as well post it here.

Mike Peca followed by Schoenfeld.

Maybe they should... They might play harder

44 seasons down now and only an occasional sniff. At least a couple more before they are true contenders. Shame... Shame... Shame...
