Kevyn Adams and the Sabres didn’t have much luck on Friday night, as they were the first card shown, meaning that they will pick 8th in the 2020 draft.

I founded Buffalo Hockey Central in 2008 and have poured hours and hours into this site. Luckily, we have a great team of writers and designers who have helped keep this up and running despite a ton of out-of-pocket costs. We do this because we enjoy it, and we're desperate to see the Sabres win the Cup someday, but they have to make the playoffs first.
