Buffalo has been "full of potential" for a decade, yet the results are consistent

You gain a significantly higher pick, increasing your chances of getting higher talent and there are atill good rd available at the end of the 1st round


Then Buffalo should just keep the picks they have since there are good RD available late.

If there is someone at 6 that Buffalo really wants then sure, but this draft is deep so I dont see a ton of value in moving up.

I take Gauthier at 9
Kasper or Chesley at 16

The trade makes a lot of sense, but I think CBJ's biggest need (outside of a star center, like every year) is RD, so I think they'll keep the pick to select Jiricek or Nemec (if available). Good value, but probably a case of "why trade our pick so they can select our guy?"

the biggest need for cbj is RHD. So if Jiricek is available cbj wont trade the pick....
