The right approach

Sabres need forwards who have more of a two way game that what Guentzel brings.

Gotcha. Value wise though for a team that's similar to Buffalo in draft standing (8-12 maybe around there), do you think this is fair?

Assuming there was desire to extend? yeah probably. He's a little older than I thought, so Id assume an actual deal may involve other assets on either side to balance it out. But as the framework its definitely what Id ask for if I were PIT

Boston has to shed cap can’t add to it. Don’t need middle 6 center, don’t need wing.

The Sabres don't need forwards really, top 6 is set with 2 more rookies coming up next year
