Not how I personally see it.

This year's draft is quite deep. Buffalo's 1st will be one of Perfetti, Sanderson, Holtz, Raymond, Askarov, or Rossi.
I also believe that Mittelstadt could turn things around and become Mtl's 3C / 2LW eventually (With KK & Suzuki at 1 & 2C) with heavy PP usage.
So if on top of that you get Jeff Petry's replacement Montour signed for 7 years. That's a lot of great pieces coming Mtl's way.

Just like Buffalo fixes their 2C problem for many years to bring along Cozens more smoothly. And strengthen their LD side with Mete sliding in behind Dahlin on the left side for the next decade. They'd be one of the best Dcorp at transitions in the league on the left side.

You have to give to get.

Why would you help a team in our division. They're heading for cap hell, let them.

You give a top 4 defenseman in Mete for Montour who's a bottom pair d-man.
You give a top 6 forward for a very uncertain prospect and a huge cap dumb.

Giving too much for too little in my opinion

For the buffalo trade I’d rather leave it at montour + 1st for Domi + 3rd round pick. Take out mete, middlestat and okposo
