That Minnesota trade keeps getting shot down by Minnesota fans. Portillo has 0 value to them

Overpay for Fiala. Guy needs a huge contract & can walk in a year. You don't need to give up that much.

And frankly, Mitts doesn't have much value to us either. To this point he hasn't proven much in the NHL and he has played nearly 200 games. I think his value to us would be identical to Sturm/Jost: 4th line guy that could get an opportunity in the lineup with injuries. I know Sabres fans put high value on him (which is understandable given how highly he was drafted), but to us I just don't see him having very much value.
