Outside of Zibanejad's NMC, I don't see why Buffalo would want Zibanejad's expiring contract when they're rebuilding. They should maximize the return on Eichel.

Maybe Zibby likes the idea of heading to beautiful Buffalo tears of joy

Even if he didn't though, I'd have to think it'd HAVE to be a 3 team trade. Buffalo taking 1 year of Zibs and then trying to flip him (Assuming that he would want to either hit the market as a UFA, or re-sign with a contender) is a dangerous mission.

The Athletic's credibility is quite low. Also... don't trade away a prospect with the last name Lundqvist quite yet. I remember saying the same thing when Washington traded a certain someone to Nashville for Martin Erat back in the day.

They’d have to flip him before the season because I don’t think there’s any chance he’ll agree to play for The Sabres, his production will take a hit and it will affect how much he can get in free agency.

Yeah, that's why I'd say 3 team trade. Maybe Buffalo retains on him or something to maximize the return, but they can't just take him and then try to put another trade together. Dangerous.

Lol for sure. The only teams that makes sense for Zib to go to is VGK or Boston IMO

Rangers should absolutely do it.

Mika is a pending UFA and if the Rangers lose him and Strome, they'll need Eichel even more.

However, Mika will need to waive his NMC for Buffalo first frown

Zib to Boston would be a Leafers nightmare tears of joy

"Yes! They have no 2C, Rask is out for a while! TIME TO SHINE BABYYYY!"
(NYR trade Zib to Boston)
"F*******CKKKKKK!!!"

Lol right - even without a good 2C they’ll still be contenders. They have so many elite play drivers in their top 9.

That Atlantic division is going to be a nightmare. I really believe Florida can win the division as long as they get average goaltending. I’m really high on Spencer knight. Then you have Tampa, Boston, ..yikes. The leafs should have went all in last season

Buffalo gets: Rangers 2022 1st and 2023 2nd, Robertson, Boston 2022 1st and 2022 2nd, Debrusk.
Make it Lundkvist instead of Robertson and Rangers 2022 2nd instead of 2023.
Buffalo greatest need is a RHD prospect.
Six first or second picks in 2022 are more valuable than over a longer period to complete a rebuild.
