dudacek Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) Here's my draft hot take: Cole Perfetti is this year's Elias Petterson. His skill level and hockey sense are being underrated, while size and skating issues are being overrated. A few years from now, people will be saying he should have gone higher. Got any to share?

LGR4GM Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Seth Jarvis ends up as one of the top 5 players from this draft even though he won't be drafted in the top 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashsabre Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Whoever the Sabres pick at #8, some people will bitch about the pick while others will complain they should have traded it😀 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 A player selected by the Sabres in this draft wins a Conn Smythe trophy while wearing a Sabres sweater. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(As opposed to some 4th round pick who has to get through the AHL or NCAA for 3-4 seasons). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Lucas Raymond is being undersold. He has both a high floor and high ceiling. Lafrenière is the only wing in this draft who will end up a better NHLer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be ok with this if certain other players are already taken, Rossi being one of them. But if Rossi's still there and we take a D, then I will definitely go full Scanners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom webster Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 99.9% of me really wants want some astute drafting but I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that part of me wants them to pick LGRM’s least favorite player just to read his venom. And I hope he knows I say that with all due respect and appreciation for what he brings to this board. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKnowPhysics Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Hot Take: The Sabres will rob a team in trade, and either: a) we won't be able to understand we robbed them until February-ish. b) it will be clear we robbed them at the time of trade even by admission of the other teams' fans- but there will still be claims of overpayment on this board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveoath Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Someone will get chosen in rounds 3-5 who becomes an absolute stud and there will be fans saying later "we could have had him". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid board. We've only every been wrong to be skeptical of this team! That's been proven /s My hot take? This board would do a better job drafting and running the team by consensus than the organization has done, for years.

OhMyDahlin Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Alexander Holtz will be the third best player in this draft class...and the Sabres will pass him up for a kid with a 3rd line ceiling (Lundell). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnC Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Perfetti is a super bright person. There is no one in this draft or involved in hockey who can solve the rubic cube quicker than he can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, it wouldn't be weird if the Sabres did/said something at the first game about him. Dude was a sponsor for a long time.

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 TB gets two of it's guys with NTCs to accept a trade. Tyler Johnson is one and he gets traded to Buffalo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
