I’ll believe the Sabres get rid of Skinner when it actually happens- seems doubtful to me

Always liked Fiala, he’s an interesting idea
Would LA move him though?
And can the Sabres afford him moving forward if they don’t move Skinner ?

Kings probably arent interested in moving him, he's literally our best offensive threat and we need to be building that up, not tearing it down.
Also probably wouldn't be making any moves for futures (U20, draft picks), would have to be a hockey trade if anything. But I don't see many players Sabres would be willing to let go.

the penguins wouldn't pay a younger Guentzel 9 mil and you think they are going to give that to Skinner?
For what reason?

Hayes is not an ideal 3C, I think they will be looking for more of a matchup / shutdown kind of guy for that role.
I would be shocked if the Kings traded Fiala, if so I think the Sabres would need to add another prospect.
I cant see Pittsburg taking on Skinners contract without retention.

Yeah, Sabres & Kings probably aren’t great trade partners
