Looking to next year, Konecny&Lyckasen are out. I'm still all about giving an ELC to Huglen. Costantini looked decent at the prospects camp, curious to see how he does at WMU and wondering why he completely fell off last season.

Lindgren should get an ELC as well. Those are the only two ELCs we may see next year, Huglen & Lindgren. If Strbak crushes it, one year in NCAA would be plenty for him.

For undrafted NCAA, there's Graf, Galambos and Bischel who should be in most teams top 10s. I'm not up to speed on the European free agent adds.

Komarov showed up at the Quebec Remparts camp with a foot injury on Saturday. They said nothing about the timeline. He has not been on the ice so far.

Corey Pronman's NHL Pipeline Rankings: No. 3 Sabres have built a formidable system

Ranking the top prospects and under-23 players in the organization. Plus, what to expect of every player.

theathletic.com

Buffalo was the No. 1 pipeline last year and by a significant margin. That’s reflected by the fact they graduated Rasmus Dahlin and Mattias Samuelsson and are still top five. I’m a big fan of what’s been built in Buffalo between the Jason Botterill and Kevyn Adams eras, and think they will be a Stanley Cup contender sometime in the next few years if they can get even decent goaltending.

Key additions: Zach Benson, Anton Wahlberg, Maxim Strbak, Scott Raztlaff

Key graduates: Rasmus Dahlin, Mattias Samuelsson

2022 ranking: No. 1

2023 NHL Draft grade: B+
