Created by: ISeeDeadPeople

Team: 2018-19 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Jun. 7, 2018

Published: Jun. 7, 2018

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

A lot of assuming here:
Assuming Hoffman has BUFF on his acceptable trade spot list.
Assuming Nylander has a terrific offseason and training camp to earn his spot.
Assuming Carolina is cool with taking on Lehner because if not, Rask can't be included in that deal.
Assuming CJ Smith's skating improves and can keep up with the NHL game.
Assuming Botterill is ok moving that San Jose 1st rounder.
And assuming OTT is cool with trading within the division.

I think you are de-valuing Hanifin and/or Rask a bit in this. They are both young pieces in their build and I don’t think ROR is enough to convince them to move both

Word out of Carolina is that they may not be as high on Hanifin as anyone would be on an average Top 5 pick. He may be most expendable and Rask is overpaid for what production he's had to this point. But that is why Lehner should be included to even things out a little bit.
