Leaving Risto/Miller/Bjork, think they'd go Miller/Risto, whichever one they don't go for trade the other.

1.) Power
(We should take Beniers, but we're foolish and will take Power)

3.) Eklund
8.) Lysell

Obviously nmc aren't going to be waved for Buffalo, but maybe the idea of playing top minutes because the team is ass would be cool? I mean obviously no but it's armchair gm so you're allowed to make up scenarios like that

Trades

BUF

Drysdale, Jamie
Perreault, Jacob
2021 1st round pick (ANA)
2022 2nd round pick (ANA)

Additional Details:

If Eichel plays 90% of the games this season 2022 2nd becomes a top 10 protected first.

ANA

Additional Details:

Offense with Zegras Comtois Eichel Olofsson is starting to look nasty, Olofsson is one of the best powerplay scorers in the league, especially with Eichel on the other side that horrific powerplay is saved. Think an Anahiem trade involving Eichel makes a ton of sense to have Olofsson involved. This is definitely a best case scenario package for Buffalo. the chances you got both Drysdale + 3rd overall are very low, but if many teams bid heavily, and ducks are truly interested, maybe?

From an ANA perspective, I don't see Drysdale going the other way. Especially not with that much salary coming. Instead of Drysdale, I could see this going down with Fowler, Manson or Shattenkirk (plus sweetener, like another prospect)

(1) Any Eichel trade must include Henrique or Silfverberg to make the money work.
(2) No Eichel trade will include Zegras or Drysdale.
(3) You're only getting one of Comtois, the 2021 first or a top-5 protected 2022 first. Trading too many future assets for Eichel will just end up with Anaheim looking like Buffalo-2020-West.
