Hello Buffalo Sabres board!
Hope you don't mind me, a Kings fan, stopping by during the dog days of summer to respectfully ask
for any honest comments you have on Brayden McNabb, especially in terms of his hockey-sense and overall NHL viability.
Out here, we've hardly ever seen McNabb play, so we mainly are looking at his stats to discern his ability.
But many of the folks on your board have actually seen him play,
and may have more concrete observations/analysis of his play to contribute, if you would be so kind.
The Kings have initial intentions of pairing him with Slava Voynov, a speedy, skilled, puck-mover who has
paired best in the past with more stay-at-home types like Willie Mitchell and Robin Regehr (who you also are quite familiar with).
Bottom line----Do you think he'll be any good?
Does he have issues in terms of skating, hockey sense, vision defensive focus, etc etc?
Any observations, honest comments or criticisms of any kind on McNabb would be welcome,
and I sincerely thank in advance, any responders.
Plus--You don't have to be as wordy as me.
==========================================
NOTE:
In the 70s, I used to live in Rochester. My fave NHL team was the Sabres with Perreault,Martin, Robert, Luce, Ramsay, etc,
and I died right along with them in that 1975 Cup final (right along with the bat).
Also have fond memories of concerts at Kleinhans (Traffic, Mountain).
