Trades

BUF

Kakko, Kaapo
Lundkvist, Nils [Reserve List]
Strome, Ryan
2022 1st round pick (NYR)

Additional Details:

Not that these guys are there yet, but I see First line/top pairing potential with both Kakko and Lundkvist. Strome is a 1C filler for a year. If he does well I would hope we could resign him.

Not sure if Sabres' fans will like the Van trade, but I think it's reasonable. I think Vancouver should pass though

This is more or less what I expect the trade to look like. Maybe one more lower value filler piece.
