No,

They need at least one more top 4 defenseman that is a RHD shot. Plus Power and Byram will most likely pair together.

They also need some experience up front and they are missing that heavily outside of Skinner and Girgy

Not suggesting anything, but is there any chance Buffalo is trying to flip Byram, or move Samuelson? Feels odd to have so many left D and for so long.

They have to move one of LHD. Could be even Ryan Johnson.
