Description

All the talk of making a move to fill RW and Buch just always makes the most sense to me. The price may be high but you are paying for a known commodity and you know he has chemistry with the players you are putting him with. It is worth the higher price. I feel this is relatively fair value, a 1st, a 3rd that has a good chance of becoming a 1st, and 2 B/C level prospects with decent draft pedigree.
I think they will target another 4C, so Bellemare makes sense to me and that is probably around what it would cost. I also think they will target a cheap depth D so Ruhwedal may be a good fit.

Thoughts?

I don’t think that gets Buch. They’d just keep him for another year if that’s the best offer.

That is not a good offer for Buch. They probably ask for one of Schneider or Laf plus picks instead

Condense the 3rd, Sikora and Robertson into a legit young top 4 D, and then maybe we'll talk.
