There is no need for Columbus to do that. Any trade for Jiricek would need to include Power or Dahlin. Buffalo, rightfully, wouldn't do that.

Columbus tells you to pound sand.

Honestly, if we can get Lindstrom at 5OA, I’m happy.

Hard pass.

Samuelsson and Ostlund are definitely interesting assets, but we can't afford to give up Jiricek, and that difference is not worth trading up three spots for us.

Love the lindstrom idea. I've seen him mocked anywhere from 3-12, wouldn't be surprised if he's gone at 5.
