I think this board is napping on Kulich a little. He's basically like another Peterka with a better shot and while I don't think he makes the team this season, next season he might. There's a lot to like about his small area game, shot, defending skills, and overall ability to play a good effective game.

Not so much napping more like lets see it in action.... Hard to tell how players will honestly develop at the next level.

Quinn last year was a good example, nobody expected him to make a name for himself so quickly but he showed he could play. Some growing pains but were expecting him to be a solid player in the pros after watching him in Rochester for the the year.

 

This year we watch Rosen and see what he's is really aboot eh!

How often have I said he was my favorite pick of ours in this draft.  After Kasper, this is the one kid I really wanted.  Watched him pot 9 goals on a mediocre Czech team in the U18s.  He was also good in the Hlinka Gretzky Cup and even in the U20s.  I kind of hope he plays in Rochester in the fall, but I wonder if KA will send him to the CHL for a year.

From Adam Mair's interview sounds like there is a good chance he plays in the Q this year.

I'm kinda expecting the Sabres to sign all three 1st rounders shortly after camp.

And to @LGR4GM, personally I'm exceptionally high on Kulich.

Kid is a hockey player. Right there with JJ as among the best "value picks" the Sabres have made.

I like him better than Östlund.  Would have been happy with taking him at 16.  Surprised he was there at 28.

Cool...You've watched him some, that does sound exciting....

I'm just a guy who heard his name for the 1st time when we drafted him. so I get regulated to the wait and see crowd, but what you mention sounds great.. Looking forward to seeing that come to fruition

I was too optimistic at start about him, I had him playing games in the NHL this year already, but they will have him a year in the AHL for sure.

You know how much the fans love bringing back former players.

Usually in coaching or management roles, but the fans do get excited when a Pommers comes back again. 

Reino was my favorite Sabre of the Eichel era.  I have his jersey.  I never want to see him in a Sabres jersey again.

Reino was never a “Buffalo” type of player that fans would ever love, from the day he was drafted (I was hoping for Draisatl).

I’m surprised he was your favorite.
