Welcome back from hiatus.

Let's assume for the moment that Vejmelka = Mittelstadt, although the former is looking very much like a starting goalie (which is why you're acquiring him) and the latter is looking like a VERY high draft pick who just isn't turning out. That means that you're valuing Chychrun at a 2023 first as long as it's not a top 10 pick, a good prospect and two unsigned youngsters who can be free agents a couple of months after their collegiate seasons end. I don't think that that's the kind of offer that's going to get Chychrun.

Arizona is not trading Vejmelka. These are becoming spam, its not going to happen

Quoting: OldNYIfan

And even if it did, Chychrun does NOT “fix the defense”
He’s bad on the right side & it would be a mistake to pay all that & then put him in a spot where he’s likely to be unsuccessful

Chychrun is a good player
Just not the right fit for the Sabres though
