Yeah yeah yeah, that one. I don't follow SP too much, but that episode was recommended by a friend. I haven't laughed that hard for quite some time.

South Park seasons 17-23 is one of the best runs for a show ever.

I dont see WPG getting a better offer than that tbh.
- Hank Balling

I can't see a single team offering a higher 1st than that. Maybe the Red Wings? But that's a bigger deal with Husso involved.

Fans have spoken!! Sorry if posted already.

I'm just saying you're more likely to get a Kassian, Prysk or Girgensons than a Josh Morrissey

Mid 1st rounders aren't a sure bet in the nhl.

Love our scouting and management, 100% trust in the pick.

Feels good, like the polian/butler era...

If there are any episodes to check out beyond Bat Dad, I am open to suggestions. I don't know if I have six seasons in me though lol.

Not surprised KA is getting good marks.

But he signed Okposo, so I do agree with the trolls in that all is now doomed.

Current Sabres management found Kulich at 28 and Peterka at 34.

So maybe not to your general assertion above...?

I agree. That’s a really good value for a rental too

**still have no idea what either of those guys are going to be.

If we remove the best and worst of the players drafted at 13 OA from 2010-2020, you're looking at a player that's an average of Vrana/Faksa/ Dellandrea/Jarvis/Baertschi

Higher end: Suzuki/Knight (maybe?)

Highest:Morrissey

Lower end: Bean/Zboril

Lowest: Brandon Gormley



I would give up Vrana/Faksa/ Dellandrea/Jarvis/Baertschi and UPL for Hellebuyck

Wouldnt be surprised to see the Sabres move olofsson and another player at the draft.

Gaining picks, not moving picks out of buffalo.

Hit on these guys , while the band is still together.

Helly isnt happening IMO

Is John Marino worth the 13th pick ?

I stopped at the bold.

Why are you only looking at 13th overall?

Shouldn't you be looking at the range of what was available around 13? Say 11 through 16. Or 13 through 18?

"Based on the odds of those picks turning into good NHL players down the road, I'd rather have the good player right now for this season and next and help this group win right now," BriseBois said at a press conference on Monday. "I know what the odds are of those picks turning into players. I also know the odds of those picks turning into players that can help us win while we have this group of players right now in their prime ready to go for another long run — the odds of that are zero.

"None of the players we were going to have to draft with those picks were going to help us win this year or next, or probably the year after that. So when you put it into that context and you frame it that way, it ends up being a pretty easy decision actually."

It's relative to the team drafting at that position, for the Sabres IMO no he is not worth the pick.

This is the 3/4th time in the last 12 years the Sabres have a top rated prospect pool.

This might be the 1st time they have an NHL team that can utilize it.

For one year of Hellebuyck though.

And if you extend him, the contract will most likely fist us at some point.

1/10 long term goalie contracts ever work out

I can't see a single team offering a higher 1st than that. Maybe the Red Wings? But that's a bigger deal with Husso involved.

Montreal could offer their 1st in a package for Helly and Dubious

It’s not much better.

Opening it up actually makes the chances of “star” player lower.

I think the Sabres cup window would be open for 3-4 years and Skinner comes off the books by the time we're ready to get out the lube

Montreal will just sign him in FA.... cause y'know his contract expired

He'd be in Montreal already if he was, he's made it clear he wants to play there.
