You are very not better giving up Mit, Mil and a 1st for Cirelli. There's a chance he could immediately start underperforming to expectations. Keep drafting, I know it's a really delayed case in Buffalo because they spent the better part of last decade "rebuilding" but just keep drafting and developing. Also, Brodie does not take less money, especially to play in Buffalo and he prefers playing on the right side.

I don't get Buffalo. They should have moved quicker this year and made some no risk moves.
They knew they were going to slide down the standing and just stayed pat.
They could have tried Galchenyuk for Vesey. It's not like Vesey would have been some great loss for Buffalo and both contracts expire at the end of the year.
There are probably a half dozen moves this team could have tried at no real loss to wake the team up.
They got 32 games left and they are behind by 5 games. At this point I don't see them getting back into it. So to make such moves now is almost pointless.
But they should have went for it. They really had nothing to lose.

In Buffalo that's called a Mittelstadt.

TB wouldn't want Miller.

There's plenty of cap space so being nitpicky about Greiss taking a pay cut after a great season isn't important.

And the expansion draft isn't until after next season...

Just stop with your Cirelli trades. Not gonna happen.

Oh God! Let the kid develop. It's not always a linear path. There's ups and downs. He JUST started being able to drink beer in the States, and by "beer in the states" I mean weird water.

Cirelli gonna be the next Bergeron.

Aka Tampa turns the trade down

Can he when Point and Stamkos push him down the depth chart

I don' think Tampa would make a trade involving Cirelli but they might be hard pressed to keep him if a team made an aggressive play for Cirelli as a RFA

He's not getting pushed anywhere. He's the second best C on the team behind Point (and best defensive C), Stammer is a winger now. He has established himself as a top-six player
