I think Buffalo just needs a reliable goalie to help mentor Levi. Someone with more experience like Varlamov or Reimer

Do you think Buffal would give up their 2023 first? If so, that (instead of the 2024) probably gets that trade done, unless Arizona is looking for a king’s ransom (which they should be).

Good argument to that.
I just have a hard time thinking BUF can convince a goalie to sign. They still dont have a great reputation, their defense leaves the goalie out to dry a lot and they wouldn’t be the established number 1.

Vejmelka was the 1 in Arizona and he put up good results.

I don’t think they do. Maybe they add a non Kulich/Ostlund/Savoie prospect

If neither is involved its declined immediately. Crouse has double the worth to Arizona than any other team. There's no need to trade him
