The Sabres get absolutely killed in all 3 deals. Sure, okposo and olofsson don't have value, but their contracts are over in 25 games. Kuznetsov has a bonus year at 8m, might as well keep mittelstadt. The Edmonton deal does nothing for buffalo, it's a quantity deal, the Sabres get softer, and they get futures, two things they don't need. Hathaway would be a nice addition, certainly addresses some needs, but I'd stay away from Laughton, the idea of him as a player sounds nice, but he's having an awful year defensively, and I don't wanna give up a first for him.
