Alright so basically I thought about that trade before I completed it

The original idea was

Sabers get: Drouin 500k retained, a 2020 second round pick from the Blues, and Brett Kulak.

MTL get: 8th overall pick

Don't ask why I didn't do this because the answer is I am doubtful of every thing I dodoododod

Second idea I had was

Sabers get: Drouin 500k retained

MTL get: 2020 second rounder I got from Winnipeg, Tage Thompson and Rasmus Asplund

Second trade was probably not enough
The trade I ended up doing which I will show you again here was too much

And yes I know I'm not a very good armchair gm so these probably all suck in general but y e p

Buffalo has depth at two spots LW and RD. They don’t need Drouin.

Your second trade was probably closer. The problem here is Drouin's reputation. Like Monahan, he was drafted high and is canadian so the assumption is that he's universally accepted as being pretty good.

Spoiler alert, he's not.
