MN declines - Zuccarello still produces and we're happy to just shop him ourselves at TDL.

Buffalo isn’t trading a top 40 pick for a bad defenseman, have the cap space so no need for retention, also could easily do that trade for him for a first (not that Van would do that at all). These are all reasons why not.
