PASabreFan Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 S'all good, man. Eichel, Reinhart, Girgensons down the middle. Nice start. In a way, it's better in that it's less likely that we'll have the tank thrown in our faces when we win our Cup(s) and cusps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drifter Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 The tank was a success. This is why you need to shoot for last place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 9 more points and the Sabres would have drafted 1st. Only if the pre-lottery number assignments would still have been the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) There is nothing I don't like about the way Jack Eichel plays hockey. He will be the best Sabre since PLF. Edited April 19, 2015 by dudacek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Why would anything regarding the lottery be different? Why would it necessarily be the same? IF the teams are in different order maybe it takes the guy setting up the randomizer 2 extra seconds to get it rolling and now that particular # ends up in the hands of #5. We can't know what happens in that alternate universe where the Sabres weren't the worst NHL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted April 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Couldn't you then say the Sabres lost the lottery because they "tanked"? we are in the land of what ifs so you can honestly say anything. The good news is the tank got us Jack Eichel. Think how Phoenix and Toronto feel right now. Anyone think Murray goes after McDavid? Buffalo Sabres @BuffaloSabres 8m8 minutes ago Murray: We don't want to trade the #2 pick. Not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onceagain Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Anyone notice how much McDavid was blushing when they announced Edmonton - u could feel his stomach drop...will be interested to see how this thing plays out Its too bad the Leafs didn't get McDavid. This has been said ad-nauseum but as annoying as it would have been to see the Leafs win, can you imagine the years of excitement a McDavid-Eichel cross-border rivalry would have brought?

Taro T Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Couldn't you then say the Sabres lost the lottery because they "tanked"? If you want to, you can. But it wouldn't follow logically.

Taro T Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 It's easier to just blame the Hockey Gods. Sabres still end up w/ a tremendous hockey player. (Pretty much) Like the old 50's era campaign buttons said: I like Eich (el). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
