In 14 years and we've never moved up in the draft. Never. 

Nope. That's another drought we can cry over.

Martin is a center. I don't think he'll be there at 9.

Yeah, the worst possible. It fits.

If it makes you feel any better, Boston, Nashville, Philly and Seattle all got knocked back 2 spots as well.

It'll be a great excuse to go for the meanest player available, even if he ain't a legit first round pick. #GO.FOR.BROKE.KEVYN

Seeing Kevyn Adams there makes me ill

[DarthEbriate]

Frondell, are you ready to be a Sabre?

Well, Boston and Philly isn't terrible.

Seattle too. Jason Botterill is picking two spots worse.

[Mr. Allen]

Islanders got rid of Lou and look at the good luck they got.

Kevyn Adams very clearly still Sabres GM

We're a fake franchise 

[Night Train]

I'm looking for the Swedsh 5-8 160 LB. Center the Sabres will draft. 

[pastajoe]

The league had to make sure the Isles fill up that new arena.

Doesn't exist but unless we draft a 6'5" 280lb player, about 80% of this board will bitch they are small and totally ignore how they play.

I can absolutely see how that affected those bouncing balls. 

[PerreaultForever]

It's low enough I'm jumping down and taking Carter Bear and I don't g a f what any critics say about that.

This is such a stupid response to what I said. It's conflating losing the lottery (random event) with being annoyed that the 5 time failure of a GM is still around (not random, Pegula keeping his lackey)

[inkman]

I’m 100% confident I will hate whoever they draft at 9.

Jumping down? Just take him at 9.

I like the looks of that Helenius though. Dude slowed down play like pat Kane carrying the puck.

You responded to @Mr. Allen 's post suggesting firing their GM helped the Islanders win the lottery. I assumed that you were suggesting keeping Adams somehow led to us not winning.

I'm curious, who have you hated that we've drafted the past 5 years? Kulich? Quinn? Benson? Östlund?
