Now I'm worried about Reinhart/Eichel's trades. Say no to the NYR!
I don't mind Sam to the Rangers but no in Jack as they don't have the right package. If Jack goes anywhere Minnesota do us best.

Gotcha. My point was simply RBs aren't that important in today's NFL.
Now, back to Owen Power.
Lol got ya.

Who cares where you were picked? So was Brady lol. Elway was a shell of himself by that time.
My point is RBs aren't needed to be taken with top picks to be dominate.

He single handedly won them two SBs. Dudes in the HOF for playing like 5 seasons
Playing with John Elway who was arguably one of top 5 QBs in NFL history helped too. Yes, Davis was great but he was a 6th round pick.

The last time a RB won a team a SB was Terrell Davis
And when het got hurt Olandis Gary rushed for 1000 yards.

Running backs are important in the NFL
Behind a great oline late round RBs can perform. When we had Hasek our D-men weren't great. I mean wasn't our top pair Smlelek and Galley?

Good.
Defense wins championships. They might have a fire and ice situation with 2 great defensemen for a new Sabres generation.
No, goaltending wins championships.

This pick is boring because it was obvious from the beginning. Not in a McDavid or another player sense but in the sense that he's been the obvious first overall pick since late in the season.
Beniers' injury might have played a part which to me shouldn't have.

Love how Buffalo is on the clock... and we have NO idea how much time is left on the clock. Screw ESPN they suck.
The clock in lower right corner.

I think they take Power right now. I thought Eklund earlier but I think they go Power. I'm not gonna be upset but a little disappointed.
Power's the safe pick but I don't think he's a great #1Dman like Pronger which to me is what need taking a Dman this high.

Sounds like there's a pretty decent chance Sabres don't make any more trades today
And I'd be happy about that, I can't see us getting value for Eichel. I also think Sam better moving at trade deadline if he only gets a one year deal as like to see him as a #2C that I've been hoping for since traded ROR.

Bucci is good but so far as a host he's bland as hell. Weekes is good. They need a little more action on the set. These old hockey minds get me nowhere.
TSN's coverage is great but they are a Canada-only broadcast so there's a reason they only cover their teams.
But when NHL network simulcasted it, it was sickening.

I do, this is the first on-air analysis I've gotten to hear of the deal.
I hope whenever they formally announce the start of the draft they have a better graphics package coming, though, because this is weak. Also, the energy on this set is ***** terrible.
It's better than the tsn coverage which focuses on Canadian teams at nauseam.

No, we are taking one of the goaltenders
Why not Eklund 1 and a goalie at 14?

What’s the Granato connection?
His brother coaching him at Wisconsin.

Yes especially since Hagg is a LHD and we got him too.
All the LHD
Na, we're going to take RHD Corson Ceulemans at #14 cuz of the Granato connection.

Power has to be the pick now.
Maybe but plenty of good D-men in this draft and some could fall if we start the run on forwards by taking Eklund.

Risto more value than Eichel?
E4
We still have Joki and Miller that are RHD.

There's your replacement for Borgen. Toss in we love us some Swedes.

Power isn’t the best player available as well
I agree I think Beniers is the best player available.

With the first overall pick I think you take best player regardless of position.
Do you think St Louis is glad they took Eric Johnson over Jonathan Towels or Phil Kessel in 2006? I'm sorry but the need to score is a bigger need to me. Good to great defenseman only as good as the goalie behind them.

Beniers, Eklund and Guenther were my top 3.
