The main pillar in the foundation of the Buffalo Sabres' organization is excited to add the next one.

After finally winning a draft lottery, the Sabres will have the No. 1 pick in June, and Jack Eichel is excited at potentially adding a certain generational defenseman out of Sweden.

"Obviously, it's tough to say that we're excited to have him because we haven't drafted him yet, but if we were to get a player named Rasmus Dahlin, I think it would be great for our team, our city," Eichel told John Vogl of The Buffalo News. "After the season that we had, it was a tough one, and just trying to build that excitement again for next year. I think that's just another piece to it."

Dahlin has been the consensus top pick of the 2018 draft all year, and owns an extraordinary skill set capable of making an immediate impact for the Sabres.

"I've seen him play and I've talked to a few guys about him," Eichel said. "Obviously, he's got some pretty incredible highlights. It seems like he's a special, special player."

The New York Rangers will hire Boston University's David Quinn as their next head coach, Rick Carpiniello of The Athletic reports.

There are still details to work out, however, and an official announcement isn't expected until Rangers general manager Jeff Gorton returns from scouting the World Championship in Denmark, Carpiniello adds.

Quinn will replace the recently fired Alain Vigneault, and is expected to sign a five-year contract worth approximately $12.5 million for his first NHL head coaching gig.

The 51-year-old had spent the last five seasons behind the bench as coach of the Terriers, accumulating a record of 105-67-51 in that span while winning the Hockey East and finishing as NCAA runners up in 2014-15.

The Rangers missed the playoffs for the first time since 2009-10 this season, and formally announced an impending rebuild over the winter. With a head coach reported to be in place, the organizational focus will shift to the draft, where New York owns three first-round picks.

Mark Scheifele's torrid playoff run has put him alone in the NHL record books.

By notching his 11th road goal of the playoffs (and second of Game 3) the Winnipeg Jets superstar established a new league record for away goals in a single postseason, per NHL Public Relations.

Schiefele surpassed Joe Mullen (1989 with the Flames) and Sidney Crosby (2009 with the Penguins) to claim top spot on the list and leads the playoffs with 14 goals so far.

The Vancouver Canucks are expected to sign top prospect Elias Pettersson following the World Championship, a source told Sportsnet's John Shannon.

Pettersson was suiting up for his native Sweden at the tournament, but his showing was cut short after he fractured his thumb in a game Sunday.

The Canucks drafted Pettersson fifth overall in the 2017 draft, though he went unsigned throughout his dominant season with Vaxjo in the Swedish Hockey League.

In 44 games, Pettersson led the league with 56 points, and was named SHL Rookie of the Year, MVP, and playoff MVP as a 19-year-old.
