GDT: NHL entry draft 7/23 & 7/24

[Ace]

Hey what do you guys think the Sabres thought of their winger prospect pool?

 

[TunaBoss44]

Josh Bloom..

Big OHL winger with 14 pts last year in 54 games...wtf he doesn't fit

That was the year prior. It looks like he didn't play at all this year with the OHL not playing

Adams is having a great weekend.

 

[Fjordy]

Some forwards, hey Kevyn maybe pick a defender for a change?

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

Nadeau is a solid pick here.

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

We’ve taken five straight forwards and none of them have been centers. Interesting.

 

[Sabreality]

Oliver Nadeau...had him ranked in this range.

Potential bottom-6 winger

ranked 74 by McKenzie, I'll take it

Nah keep going forward. Power and all forwards please.

I bet we here about at least one having center tendencies

Scored at a similar pace to bourque, bougault, and ponomaryov. One a first last year, one a first this year and one a 2nd last year. Seems like good value

We haven’t made a pick in minutes this is bull crap

Yeah I would definitely say his skills aren't on par with Bourque, or even Bourgault, but he was a nice complement to that line. Does lots of the hard work for them.

Nadeau getting some time on the draft. That’s cool

Points aren't everything but I like to think that if a guy can produce, even if not the main driver, there's enough talent to at least keep up at the next level

Sure looks a hell of a lot better now than it did going into the draft.

We were absolutely BARREN organizationally when it came to forward prospects. This will hopefully go a long way towards fixing that.

 

[Jeremy2020]

Not one guy named Rasmus? What the hell are they doing over there?

 

[Rastin]

What happened to our 5th round pick? I cannot recall.

 

[sabres4ever]

I couldn't follow any of today til now, since I was on the road for 5 hours.

We know Power MAY play for us this year? but maybe not.

Can you see anyone from this draft playing for us this year?

We lost Sam, didn't get a winger back, who'll replace him?

Jack could be going, he'll fetch an assistant coach or two, and conditional picks 5 yrs from now.

I knew we had low expectations for this coming season, but damn!

Simmonds deal two years ago.

 

[HaNotsri]

Simmonds deal two years ago.

The ghost of Jason in the third and fifth round.

We were the worst team last year, gave away our top scorer, about to dump our generational center and have added nothing!!! Yikes.

Still pretty barren at center, though.

Yeah, that's a bit concerning and something I hope we address as the Draft goes on.
