That is a horrible islander trade. Giving up a 3rd plus taking on Ladd. We will get a first just for hall.

Seattle will take borgen

Both of these trades are terrible for Buffalo. Ladd is a dead weight contract no one wants. Graves is about to be the player Seattle takes from Colorado, and yet somehow he is worth the only forward not named Jack Eichel worth protecting on this team? Not to mention depth among defenders is the only thing the Sabres have as an organization. Graves is good, but nowhere near as important as Sam Reinhart is to this team.

Borgen has missed most of the year and has shown nothing, I highly doubt they will take him

None of these moves make the team better. Good luck convincing Dougie Hamilton to come to Buffalo.
