Those trades are insanely bad for Buffalo, but what has Power done to deserve a million dollars more than Tage a year

I doubt Minnesota would do that first trade. No need to pay value for UPL with Gus as our starter and Wallstedt cooking in the AHL. If anything we could sign a cheap vet in free agency or just take Fleury out of the deal altogether (he has a NMC).

Fleury+Foligno+2nd (all pieces Minnesota values to some extent or wants to keep) is a hefty price for Mittelstadt as the only desirable piece coming back.
