Hindsight is 20/20. There were a few other top prospects entering that year whose development trajectory has taken a detour: Borgstrom, Zadina, Kotkaniemi.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brian2016</b></div><div>He was just as terrible as his predecessor Tim Murray. The drafting has been worse than abysmal. Nylander (traded) and Mittelstadt have been complete busts so far. Neither Murray nor Botterill drafted an impact player in the 2nd-7th rounds. In fact, BUF hasn't drafted an impact player outside the top 2! Systemic Failure.</div></div>

In the interest of fairness, the Sabres are among the teams who have gotten the best haul in terms of impact players from the draft since 2014. You're correct in saying they haven't gotten much beyond the first 2 picks (besides Olofsson) and they've been competing with a stacked deck in terms of the number and value/potential of the picks available to them.

Sujet: The Cynical Point of View

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>You think any of the teams I mentioned have the ghost of a chance to win the Stanley Cup in a year when they would have to win FIVE, not four, playoff series?</div></div>

Yes, there is literally a ghost of a chance. Which is probably enough incentive for a pretty good chunk of guys who have gotten to this level due to their level of "compete".
It's the ultimate prize for these players and writing it off because your organization could potentially get a better chance at a potentially better prospect in the draft is, I think, frankly silly.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Just out of curiosity, what conceivable incentive do teams at the bottom of the brackets (like Montreal, Chicago, New Jersey and Minnesota) have to win their first-round matchups?

Personally, if I were Claude Julien, and we were tied going into the third period of the fifth game, I'd pull the goalie.</div></div>

The chance to win a Stanley Cup appears to me to be a pretty enticing motivation.

** Question was** Can Cbo be used on a previous buyout hit? I think it was allowed previously, therefore best option for NYR is using Shattenkirks massive hit.</div></div>

I can't say for sure, but I doubt it's possible to buyout an already bought out contract. And if so, I'm pretty sure it hasn't happened yet.
What you may be thinking of is the situation with Wade Redden and Scott Gomez being allowed to be bought out ahead of the shortened 2013 season.

Sujet: Who would you rank as the top goalie over the last 10 years

In my mind, Price is the most talented goalie of the past decade. But since he has had some injury issues and has played with some bad teams I would think off the top of my head that Lundqvist, Crawford, or Quick probably had the best performance over the past 10 years combined. Bobrovsky, Rinne, Fleury, and Bishop have had some great seasons but not the same kind of sustained dominance.

All that said, I think I looked this up a month or so back and I'm pretty sure Rask has the best stat line over that time period.

Sujet: If the NHL drafted like other major North American sports leagues

The average age of most players drafted in the other major North American sports leagues (NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS) is around 21 years old; compared to the NHL which is around 18 years old. Drafting players at an older age means teams have more insight into their development curve and more time and track record to scout their picks.

It's interesting to think about how things would shake out if the players that were eligible for the 2017 NHL Draft were actually being considered this summer instead.

They're self-imposed parameters. Keeps it so that the range of variation factors in the player's perceived value/potential at the time of the draft.

Sujet: NHL All-star game is a joke

Especially with the NHL not sending players to the Olympics and again postponing the World Cup of Hockey, I'd like them to bring back the North America v World roster format. Although I'm not sure in terms of optics they would (or even should) embrace that "divisive" framework related to nationality in the current geopolitical climate.

I'm not arguing who's playing better right now; I'm saying the team are shopping Scandella.
I'm sure they'd love to move Bogosian, but his cap hit combined with injury history make him harder to move than Scandella even though they're both expiring contracts.

While Olofsson has one of the best shots in the NHL, right now Johansson has a better all-around game.

They're not holding the tournament so there's no way of knowing how they would have handled the rosters. I just used the format from the 2016 tourny.
