Official 2014 NHL Draft thread


North Buffalo

While I didn't expect any trades to happen this early, I think we'll see fewer trades than originally expected. I don't see Spezza moving now since there appears to be no action there.

 

I could see us making a trade and then maybe a surprise like Eric Staal.

He'll get to play w/ Tavares. That'll make his transition easier. But it won't necessarily make the Isles better this year. (probably will make for a he k of a tandem his sophomore year.)

 

Dal Colle probably doesn't come right away.

Is he ready for the NHL with significant minutes?

Sorry I missed this. I would say no. He is a little skinny and he needs to round out parts of his game. I would let him stew another year. The NYI though may not do this. I think he could put up 40pts as a Rookie on a line with Tavares and Okposo but they should wait a year.
