So, 2 wasted draft picks for guys who can't even get on the ice.. And Miro can't get ice over Lappi.. The season is over, what are we doing? Make it make sense.  :-(

Miro is a winger. I don’t know that he’s ever played center in North America. Lappy can play either, but has been a center since Dowd was traded.


Kampf is also a center, and I assumed he was brought in to replace Dowd.
 :huh:

3 Sabres surrounding LT, while Chychrun and TVR are looking up ice already. Poor D, as usual.
