What is the logic/your thought process behind Buffalo doing this when they will get offers with a) better prospects and b) a package that doesn't include a 30 year old winger coming off 3 shoulder surgeries with a large cap hit.

And, why is Tarasenko waiving his NTC to go to Buffalo?

It was random. Not actually taking the trade serious just want to pass the requirements.

Definitely interesting but:

Kostin has had issues for a while now
Tarasenko could play 20 games in 2 years
Late firsts
A good prospect (Alex)

Not a terrible value but idk if Buffalo wants to look back and have Kostin in the KHL and Tara retired in 2 years potentially when they probably have better quality offers. It’s just a risky haul not a terrible one.
