LaLaLaFontaine Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) The only thing I do not like is the fact that Eichel in German has the meaning of glans. (Yes it also means acorn) So this will be a jersey I cannot easily wear in Germany. Edited April 19, 2015 by LaLaLaFontaine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunomatic Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) Louis is clearly a glass half full kind of guy. As am I. I woke up this morning which is amazing in itself. The sun is shining and we get to take Jack eichel with our pick in the N.H.L. entry draft. 28 teams wish they were in our position and given the opportunity would also take Jack Eichel. He's clearly that good. Its a great time to be a Buffalo Sabres fan. Where'd I put my shades ? Edited April 19, 2015 by bunomatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddaryl Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 We tanked to be guarenteed one of the top 2 . Mission accomplished. Would of been nice to get MCConnor but Eichel is going to be a great player Reinhart to Eichel for the next 10 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesportsbuff Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I don't think anyone is "not happy" with Eichel. But last night was about McDavid. The kid who has been the #1 pick since he was 15. It's okay for people to be disappointed in missing out on McDavid and still be happy about getting Eichel.

JJFIVEOH Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 You don't like Conan? Some men just want to watch the world burn. Nah, never was a big fan of him. I really enjoyed Ferguson and Colbert. Letterman is going through the motions, Ferguson's replacement is just terrible and Fallon has yet to grow on me. Pretty much down to watching a few Netflix series. Curious to see how Colbert pans out on prime time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew Buffalo wasn't going to win that lottery. It's typical but then again it's Buffalo. Go figure. But I'm going to say this and im gonna keep saying it. I cannot wait until Murray goes up to the podium and picks Jack Eichel. I think people are selling this guy short. He's dynamic, great skater, strong and will only get better. He played against older competition than McDavid and dominated as a freshman. What's not to like plus he's a workout freak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Balls Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) Strawman of the Year. But I appreciate any chance to hear Louis.My favorite Louis CK bit is when he talks about the Boston accent. "People call it the Boston accent, it's not an accent, it's a whole city of people saying most words wrong. It's just stupidity in a massive region." And btw, I'm happier than a pig in to have Eichel. I like his bigger frame much more. Edited April 20, 2015 by Claude Balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppy22 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Over the past few years I have always said if I have to pick one player to build a team around I would pick Toews instead of Crosby... So by that thinking I should also pick Eichel over McDavid... I think everyone was a little bit sad at first but let him play a few games here and damn we are going to love this kid just as much as we would have loved McDavid.

kas23 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Seriously, let's see some hands here. Forget McDavid for a minute. Is there anyone on here that's upset about picking Eichel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Buffalo Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Tim Murray apparently. The man needs to do a mia culpa saying he is sorry about any negative feelings he might have created towards Jack E and do a little grovelling. It would really suck if Sabres lost Jack to. Can he not declare for the draft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can he not declare for the draft? I think this excerpt from an article yesterday pretty much explains it: "Sure, Murray was disappointed Saturday night after losing the No. 1 pick in the lottery -- that's the competitor in him. He doesn't want to lose at anything." To extrapolate that into he doesn't want Jack Eichel is taking it a bit far. I don't think even Eichel sees it the way you do.

Can he not declare for the draft? According to SBNation, EIchel does not have to declare himself for the draft. "The NHL entry draft is one of universal eligibility. If you're 18 and real (or not), you are eligible to be drafted into the NHL. One doesn't have to "declare"." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been critical of Murray, but people are taking his "disappointment" way out of context. It is right and appropriate to say you are disappointed in not drafting first. That is just common sense. Not sure why people equate that to disappointment in Eichel. I didn't hear that at all. I'm sure if Murray had another chance, he would have just given the sterile, canned GM answer.

nfreeman Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Strawman of the Year. But I appreciate any chance to hear Louis. The first couple of seasons of his FX show were fantastic. Last season and this season so far -- still interesting, but not that funny IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
