Steady, stay at home d-man? I like it. Hopefully in a few years he can partner with Myers

Why didn't they interview Darcy or Pysyk?

We truly are not worthy of Miller!

Took ferret all of 10 seconds to shit on the guy.

Quote:
Mark is a very talented young prospect with great upside. It also doesn’t hurt that he is a right-handed shot as those right-handed defensemen always seem to be in short supply. Judging where he goes on draft day will be a bit tricky however as there are some concerns about his game. Specifically his durability after the injuries he sustained this year, his size (Mark has average height, but is rail-thin and will likely need to add another 30 pounds to play in the NHL) and the lack of a physical game may hurt his draft stock.

Pros: extremely fluid skater, very fast, great awareness, hockey IQ

Cons: lack of physicality, injury history, size and strength

Skillset comparison: Jordan Leopold

a bit underwhelming, but good luck to you, Mark...

Hey I'm happy with a dman that is "not dynamic but has no flaws".

ok, so we got Weber, Gragnani, Brennan, McNabb, Crawford, Biega...

with depth like that on D, wouldn't have been wiser so roll the dice on Etem, or Pitlic, Tiffoli, McFarland??

especially since outside of Adam, Gerbe, and Kassian, we really don't have much offensive talent coming down the pipe

I can't stand that shithead.

Maybe he was building his shit up so he would be ready no matter what pick the sabres made, thus taking only 10 seconds to unleash his shit.

well, it seems like his hockey IQ is good and that he doesn't really have flaws in his game. Except in what he can control, his weight and his strength. He seems to have great offensive upsides and no real problem playing in his zone.

I think Darcy just wanted to get the best player available at this point just to be sure. And I think it's a good idea to add a skilled d-man, probably more skilled than Gragnani and Brennan.

But a big center would have been good too...

It will be interesting to see if Darcy can move up into the second round! I hope he can. I'm really shocked their were hardly any moves today except picks or prospects. I'm just glad no-one gave into what Burke wants for Kaberle.

when does the draft start today? any news or rumors on trades?

NO trades NO real rumors for today in Buffalo.

Savard apparently waived his NTC for 2 teams, so Boston trying to get a deal done there.

All in all, a whole lot of nothing; we'll be on the clock soon.

Really Darcy? Now I question your drafting sir...especially with Jordan Weal falling into your lap. Who cares if he's undersized; Weal was the right pick for us there.
