Sabres Forward Prospect Depth!

This maybe the deepest I’ve ever seen the Sabres forward prospect pool.

5 1st rd picks - Benson, Savoie, Kulich, Östlund and Rosen

3 2nd rd picks - Wahlberg, Kisakov and Poltapov 

1 highly thought of 3rd rd pick in Neuchev.  

Now add in intriguing later rd players Nadeau, Kovak and Rousek and you have depth like never before even without considering 4 guys under 23 in the NHL in JJP, Quinn, Cozens and Krebs.

It will be interesting to watch this sort itself out.

Can't easily build a table... so maybe an image will work. This draft filled out the feeder leagues nicely. NHL/AHL not shown. 

Strbak and McCarthy replace Nyberg and Lyckasen when they fall off next offseason. Keohane and Panocha fill the gaps left by Johnson and Novikov graduating to Rochester. Lots of centers who can float to the wing. The deficiency at the moment is at right wing, but still plenty of very young RWs in Buffalo and Rochester. I expect that position to be addressed in next year's draft.
