I wonder what the demand would be for Buffalo to trade out of 1 to 2 and possibly still get who they wanted and possibly move on from okposo. Say if power goes 1 and Buffalo wants to go a different direction.

Columbus takes that and runs. Buffalo would have to be stupid to make that deal.

I think if its the toronto first, theres something else coming too, something you probably dont wanna give up, something that is not a left handed d.

I think they plan on power being their pick, rumor is they have eklund as the top forward on their board. I would think francis is fine with beniers at 2. I know there were rumors that buffalo contacted seattle about okposo, im thinking that was due diligence on adams part, 2 years of okposo means nothing to us. Of course, if adams suggested to francis that he might just take beniers at 1 unless francis agreed to take okposo- nah, i dont think thats believable.

"Buffalo would have to be stupid"

I rest my case

Love this time of year, for some of the wheeling and dealing for cap room and draftpicks and usually disappoints though being a Jets fan. Better time of year than the games for Sabres fan, good luck I think power going to be a monster, and college won’t hurt him one bit.
