ricojes Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) I didn't want that max effort during the tank! I think X's and O's might have one a few more games though and he really didn't get max effort until later in the season anyway, so it was all good...

26CornerBlitz Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 6-4: TIM MURRAY ON WGR (23:41)@WGR550 Sabres GM Tim Murray joins Schopp and The BulldogTM (on combine)-"I think the facility is a big improvement over what we've done before in Toronto"TM-We rate every interview...basically looking for red flags. A kid that's an average interview isn't going to effect his draft status.TM (on prospect interviews)-I think you should talk more about your failings as a human being more than about the things you do well.TM (On Eichel's interview)-He was ready, prepared, quick and impressive.TM-I was never disappointed in the player we were going to get in lottery, more so on the numbers changing during our rebuild.TM-He's had a tremendous year. I don't know why he wouldn't believe he is the best player in this draft. (Eichel)TM-We don't plan on talking to Connor McDavid.TM-I think he would, but I can't say for sure. (When asked if Bylsma would still be their coach if they weren't drafting Eichel)TM-Everybody's too busy (for trade talks). I made a couple calls today, but I think guys are going to go home first and finalize their list.TM-It wouldn't be surprising to see a lot of picks being moved in the first and second round.TM (on goalie situation) It can go a lot of different ways. I've talked to 2 or 3 teams that are looking to move goalies.TM-I'm not opposed to an older goalie. Maybe that tides us over until one of our young goalies is ready to step in. We also may draft a G.TM-I can almost guarantee we'll take a goalie this year. If we can get the right guy at 21 or 31 that'll be a discussion.TM-Video Game Hall of Fame? Halo. I've had every one.Schopp: Do you play Halo online? Murray: NO. Strictly by myself, campaign. In the dark. Great interview with Murray.

26CornerBlitz Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) Jack Eichel excited to play for the Buffalo Sabres, but he’s not ready to try the wings just yet By Michael Traikos - National Post BUFFALO — Jack Eichel wants wings. It’s a few days before the fitness tests at the NHL Draft Combine and the projected No. 2 overall pick is hungry. He knows he should eat healthy. But he’s in Buffalo, a city that is about to become his new home, and so he feels a natural desire to eat what the locals eat.

Eichel is going to be a beast in a few years. He's a big boy now, just wait til he adds a few more pounds of muscle as he gets older. He's solid, can't wait to see him in Blue & Gold! Strength test today should be interesting. By a hair! Those last few weeks took a few years off of my life! Absolutely, unfortunately Arizona didn't care about the X's and O's and didn't give anywhere near max effort...
