    My thought is, if this draft was going to show itself as an anomaly, the lists would be all over the place. 

    But no, a strong Power at 1 consensus is being formed. As we have seen, that guy almost always goes first

    After the u18 guenther will be the favorite.

    Eichel and Reinhart for Tkachuk, Lindholm and a good 3rd piece (for example) certainly does not do that.

    And we've been garbage for the past three years, so...

    (*Standard disclaimer: this point is made for discussion purposes only and should not be construed as the poster advocating for the trading of either Jack Eichel or Sam Reinhart. Results may vary. Call your physician if symptoms persist beyond the first round of the playoffs.)

    Maybe it's just the mode I'm in at 11:26 AM on April 23 but I think Jack is getting traded.

    How they are handling Jack's injury within the media is a ridiculously ham-handed tell, in my estimation

    They don't care what Jack does, they just want to get a release out, as soon as possible (and already did) with a bottom line that reads, 

    "WILL BE OK FOR NEXT YEAR"

    He's gone

    I say there's zero chance with his injury teams will give crap up now till they know he's healthy to his normal self

    Can anyone give us the lowdown on Lysell? People are all over the place with his ranking, from top 5 to late 1st to everything in between.

     He plays very similar to Raymond he's the wild card in this draft to get picked early

    Honestly, Sam has so much leverage being only 1 year from UFA, I think it's about 50/50 you are right and we end up trading him this summer because he draws a hard line in his contract negotiations

    I'd bet if we do move him it's before he re-ups for 1 year like you suggested as that would stop the team receiving him from negotiating a new deal until January 1 2022

     I think he goes to Calgary for tkachuk. 

    Makes the trade easier for jack when you bring his best friend over

    It will be interesting to see how Jason Karmanos taking over the draft will change things particularly in terms of drafting CHL Players. In the three drafts he was AGM in Pittsburgh, 6 of the 14 players drafted by the Pens where CHL Players. 
    He is also going to the U18s this year, so it’s possible Dylan Guenther could be the pick 

    Another message board had this

    I truly believe that if you just looked for "high motor" and then sorted by SEAL those guys, you could draft better than Buffalo over the last decade. 

    JJ Peterka falling to the 2nd was strange and the fact we traded up to get him, might have been genius. Rest of the class is a wash but it was just 5th round and later. Personally rounds 1-3 are where you need to hit and occasionally in deep draft round 4.

    Killing it still .

     

    Don't think people realize how good jj is but they will

    He is mad because he likes Finns better but Raty stock have dropped compared to Beniers😀  Guenther is really good though, like to see him at the U18s.

    I'm sure he will be "overlooked" just like aho,pastrnak can't wait to see him on a Contender. 

    Then you will have how did he drop posts 4 years later

    I'm honestly shocked Ottawa didn't grab him

    I’m on board.  I feel like he is a safe bet to be a really good player, and he has qualities that I want on the team.  Speed, motor, puck pursuit, 200-ft game.

    Have you watched any Brandt Clarke?  He is a RD who I would consider if Buffalo is at 3-5 and Beniers is gone.

    The right choice is guenther everything beniers has but better .

    Do you think Hughes is better than Power? (I do for the record) 

    Yes huges should be the " Scouts" number 1 pick instead of power .

    It's like they forgot he existed. 

     

    Whatever praise the green giant power
