Team: 2020-21 Buffalo Sabres
Initial Creation Date: Sep. 18, 2020
Published: Sep. 18, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Lundell is the most NHL ready prospect outside of the top 3, Rossi is up there as well and if available at 8 I would take him first and play him at 3C

Lundell/Rossi playing in between two fantastic 2-way forwards in Kahun and Anderson can shelter him. You have Eichel and Staal leading on offense and Larsson leading on defense so the 3C can play relatively easy minutes with good linemates

Buddy, Columbus has 8 or 9 NHL-caliber D already. We're looking to trade away from the blue line, not add there. We also need more prospects and picks, not fewer. And Anderson is either gonna sign a long-term deal (can't see Ferris taking less than 3.5x4, and probably 4x4) or take his QO at $2.1M and walk to UFA next year.

The Blue Jackets decline.

Blues counter with one of two options because you are correct: "Perfect 2nd pair LD to pair with Joki long term"
A. Samuelsson and your 2020 1st round pick
or
B. Samuelsson, your 2022, 1st round pick and 2020, 2nd round pick

According to reports rights now, looks like Petey is going to UFA and Dunn will likely be resigned
