While I won't go so far as to suggest it's absurd as far as a raw value calculation, it's not quite there and is definitely not a fit for what EDM would need out of a Drai trade. I'll sum it up concisely by saying that any serious offer for Drai would have to include at least one of either Savoie or Kulich, not the tier below.
Further, as the centerpiece, Mittelstadt isn't particularly appealing. I get he's scoring well and that's great but he doesn't do much for EDM. The core of the problem with this offer is that it's, in a sense, too greedy. You want to add a top-5 forward in the league without surrendering a major piece of BUF's future.
