    McDavid or Eichel

    Just wondered which guy y'all prefer. I'm assuming everyone here prefers McDavid, but if we don't get the #1 pick, how happy would you be with Eichel.

    Both players are very, very good prospects, but McDavid has 100 point potential, where as Eichel has 80 point potential.

    Basically your first post. Getting eichel would be wonderful.

    Well duh. One thing I do like is eichel is bigger if I'm not mistaken. But mcdavids skill and vision is the stuff of wet dreams.

    McDavid would probably help us make the playoffs within his first 2 years in the NHL.

    Re: McDavid or Eichel

    Eichel is a big centre that will only get stronger. To me I see the potential to be a more skilled Getzlaf. McDavid is in the Crosby, Stamkos, Tavares mold.

    What happens if they miss out on both?

    You take the traditional Buffalo response and blame Bettman.

    assuming we lose the lottery, any takers on trading out?

    No. You get a number 1 center who is very young and fits the rebuild time line.

    Which Buffalo does NOT need.

    I'd like to see them go for Dylan Strome. He, like McDavid, plays for Erie and is doing VERY well for himself. (He actually LEADS the Otters in scoring with 89 points as of right now; granted, Connor missed a lot of games with that hand injury and WJC duties.)

    Re: McDavid or Eichel

    I have Mitchell Marner at No.4 slightly ahead of Dylan Strome who I have at No.5.. I wouldn't even think about dropping out of the Top 5 who ever was picking NO.4 or No.5 would have to offer there best prospect and a 2016 1st Round pick for me to even seriously consider trading out of No.2

    Too early to tell. Very talented from reports, but can't stay off the injured list.

    Over Hanifin? Strome is good but don't forget who he is playing with. His stats might be over-inflated. I think D are harder to find.
