<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>With such little WJ presence I’ve been very impressed with Kniazev and Hatakka. Both played real well so far.

I've been less impressed with Kniazev. He hasn't totally figured out when to activate and not in the o zone, Hatakka has but he is less offensively gifted. Hatakka is great in transition and has a nice release, not a great passer. Kniazev is good transitionally and puck moving. Raska was fun to watch as well but not high potential compared to these guys. And jesus Spiridonov has so much talent but is the slowest skater of all time

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jfrojelin</b></div><div>Add Hatakka, he's doing great, have him play on his off hand on the 2nd pairing probably. Saha has higher potential than any of the other centers after Bordeleau. I'd probably flip Robbins and blichfeld (even though it's weird to have half the top 6 from 2020).</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tacoshanes10</b></div><div>Yeah when I was watching the draft I was very confused why they picked Quinn over Rossi. However, Quinn is still an exceptional offensive powerhouse and positionally it makes sense.</div></div>

I understand what you mean.
In general centers are much more valuable than wingers.
Eichel, Tavares, Crosby, and many more can make a seventh round draft pick look good (Olofsson, Moulson, Sheary in the correct order).

https://www.nhl.com/news/2020-nhl-draft-mock-draft/c-318386968
There are other sources for mock drafts, but his has three different contributors who all thought Rossi be gone by the fifth round while all also agree Quinn would be available in the 11th round.

So IMO Buffalo voluntarily moved from the fifth spot to the eleventh spot.
If a team were to try to move up from the 11th OA to the 5th OA that team would need to add a very good pick around the 30th OA.

I do not want to get into a food fight over this, it is just my opinion.
Buffalo is not in the position to be drafting by need, they still need a lot more talent.
Rossi is considered to have more talent then Quinn.

Further more, a center can be moved to the wing if needed see Sam Reinhart.

<strong>Peterka </strong>had a goal and an assist for Germany in a 16 to 2 beatdown and an assist in the 5-2 loss to Finland.
So he has had a hand in 3 of the 5 goals scored by Germany.
I thought that Peterka was a great pick, Rossi IMO was a gift that we passed on.

Regardless, nice team, good future IMO.
