Around SBN: Auto Racer Jeffrey Earnhardt Excited to Make MMA Debut

Draft Day Open Thread

With the first round starting tonight, the debate over who should go first between John Tavares, Victor Hedman and Matt Duchene to the New York Islanders.  Also, the trade rumors with Kaberle possibly going to the Bruins and Bouwmeester heading somewhere, somebody is going to make a move tonight.  Stick with us all day as we will keep you updated on all of the happenings from on the floor and on the tube.

I will be updating all the Sabres picks as quickly as possible at this link. Every time the Sabres pick check back and get as much up to date info as possible.

 

I am putting up a cover it live thread that is hosted by our Prospects Guru Bakes at SabresProspects.com.  You can still comment in our open thread below but feel free to check chat in the Cover it Live thread as well.  Maybe we can lure some new users in as well.

I am hoping for some wheeling and dealing today. It will be interesting to see if Toronto is willing to pull the trigger for anyone and if the Sens ship out Heater. Certainly their decisions affect the division and our non-moving team.

As of now, the Sens aren’t shipping Heatley but there are rumors of Kaberle and the 7th for Kessel

Globe and Mail draft blog- their Oilers guy says the Oil are targeting Kassian and he might go higher than anticipated.

The Stars have apparently offered Matt Niskanen and the 8th pick to the Leafs for Kaberle

Roll Call

The loudest boos were reserved for the Bruins and of course the Leafs. Remarkably the Sens were not as loud as the Bruins.
