Flashsabre Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 I absolutely do not care about this year’s draft. For the first time in a long time I want then to finish as high as possible, draft pick be damned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 The teams in 6-8th are 9-11pts below us with 14 games left. We're not finishing that low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything can happen this is buffalo the most unlucky franchise ever.

I've seen only some highlights because he plays in a league that's impossible to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t need to be any more than a Jiricek lite. We already have 2 players (supposedly) much better than Jiricek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have 2 players (supposedly) much better than Jiricek. There is a certain, hate we will call it, that Jiricek has for opposing forwards that I wish Owen Power would get a little of. I am a huge fan of Jiricek's style of play and if Reinbacher can bring even 50% of that it would benefit the team. I should note that Reinbacher is old for his class with an October bday. He already plays in a men's league and his contract is up. The Sabres could draft him, sign him, put him in the AHL immediately very much like what they did with Kulich. He would not however help the Sabres in 2023. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PotentPowerPlay21 Posted Monday at 06:24 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 06:24 PM As of Monday March 20 the Sabres have a better chance of drafting Connor Bedard than making the playoffs. (source: moneypuck.com) If history is any guide I can see it now. At number 11 in the 2023 draft the Sabres draft a highly skilled skater from Sweden who comes in at 5'8" 162lb. The Sabres scouting staff loves him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sabres scouting staff loves him. The only skater that fits this description is Rosen and Östlund. Considering there isn't a sub 6ft swede that will go in the early teens, idk how they would accomplish this. Also, a players weight at the draft is one of the least important things for fans to worry about I can name. It is like being upset if they ate pizza instead of steak before the draft. Most 18yr olds need to add 20-30lbs of muscle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
