I posted earlier GMTM is disappointed that the Sabres fans won't have a chance to see the best player in the draft on the worst team in the league because of the lottery system. He mentioned how we're in a rebuild process and as the worst team he'd like have seen us get the best player to help this team but we won't get a chance. He mentioned that if you could trade for the best defenseman or second best defenseman in the league all things being equal you'd want the best.
Jack isn't going to do it alone. Him and Sam are going to have to be something special together for the rebuild to happen.
Maybe I'm tempering my expectations as don't want to run the kid out of town if he isn't all world.
What if Edmonton stuns the hockey world and trades the pick? As they really don't need another forward. Doubtful they'd pass on McDavid but you never know.
