After some to-and-fro'ing - i have the day off work tomorrow.

Could have still watched it otherwise - but it's better not to have to function on 2-3 hours sleep.

Are WGR covering the draft live? I might need to find a legit audio stream if i can't find a good unorthodox video stream. As bad as WGR can be - at least their coverage is Sabre centric.

What will the Sabres and Coyotes do with their three first-round picks?​


The Sabres select ninth, 16th and 28th. They've been widely linked with two players, both wingers: Jonathan Lekkerimaki of Djurgarden (Sweden), who has goal-scoring upside and could go at No. 9; and Danila Yurov of Magnitogorsk. The 28th pick, one assumes, will be another defenseman to join a growing group under last season's top pick, Owen Power. -- Wyshynski



9. Buffalo Sabres: Jonathan Lekkerimaki, RW, Djurgarden (Sweden)​

The Sabres should go with offense here, and likely on the wing. Of the available options, Lekkerimaki -- which, we'll admit, does sound like a Swedish "Letterkenny" spinoff -- gets the nod. He had 15 points in eight games to lead the under-18 world championship, including five goals. He'll need a little time to cook with just one season of pro hockey to his credit, but he's got some goal-scoring upside.

16. Buffalo Sabres (from Vegas Golden Knights): Brad Lambert, F, Pelicans (Finland)​

Lambert is the wild card of the draft. At one point, he was a seen as a top-three pick. Then he struggled with JYP of Liiga, moved to the Lahti Pelicans and then struggled there, too, finishing with four goals in 49 games total between both teams. But his skill is incredible, especially his speed. The Sabres have the kind of prospect pool where they can take a swing here, and should swing away for Lambert with the pick they acquired in the Jack Eichel deal. One interesting note: Lambert's junior rights were recently acquired by WHL Seattle.

28. Buffalo Sabres (from Florida Panthers): Maveric Lamoureux, D, Drummondville (QMJHL)​

The Sabres take a 6-7 giant of a defenseman in Lamoureux, who has good mobility but is very much a project. Or, given his dimensions, a tall task.

Montreal should pick Slaf cuz he's the best prospect and the draft. And not leak it. And then pandemonium when the pick is in.

That gives 10 minutes for Jersey to make a trade right?

I'm in the UK. Without VPN.

Pretty sure it's not available here anywhere - which is annoying. As recently as the Quinn/covid draft we actually got it on free to air TV.
