Conditional 2022 or 2023 first or second round pick if Eichel returns healthy and appears in a predetermined amount of games in the regular and post season. The first round pick is top 10 protected. Buffalo can defer to 2023 or 2024 where it will be top fivce protected

Conditional 2023 second or third round pick based on the same conditions above for 2023, and/or if Vegas wins the Stanley Cup

Buffalo retains 10 percent of Eichel's salary....modeled after the Phil Kessel trade, but Toronto was hooked for seven years at 1.2m (15%).....Buffalo will be hooked at 1m for 4 1/2- 5 years

Vegas squeezes under the cap with 20 players at 962k

Chicago has three solid options for backup with Lankinen as clear #2. Delia and Subban could be had as options to throw into the Sabres mix.

The Sabres have demonstrated a tendency so far of bringing in players familiar with Don Granato: Hayden, Hinostroza, Caggula, Bjork, Butcher.... Jokiharju was already here and given a bigger opportunity under Granato. I think Colin Delia could fit this role as well. The Sabres goal situation can be suprisingly better than we think, or horrific..... Delia gives another option for the mix.

Reacquired via waivers if he fails to make the Kraken
