Hmmm it’s diffrent I’ll give you that

I do like the first on but I don’t really see why the Isles would do that.

I do not like the last one at all

Not sure why either team is saying yes to that first trade

Not sure if Buffalo does this one, but it's not a bad trade at all

Keep KK away from STL

NYI need PP help, Blues need defense.

Bufalo should do this trade. Buch is exactly what they could use.

Zero downside to acquiring KK. Baffling that fans think it's albatross to acquire him for basically nothing.

I’d be happy with the 1st trade. But I also think Pelech is a good compliment to Parayko in a shutdown role.

If you add Pelech and then compound that by removing Buch and adding Samuelsson, I see no reason for that.

That defense you have listed has 0 puck moving ability, absolutely 0. Which is already a problem for the Blues.

If Buchnevich trade comes with an extension, then with absolutely, but even w/o an extension, seems fine.

Most undervalued part of the deal is moving Samuelsson's contract which allows Sabres to re-sign Byram and not have 4 LHD making like 30M+.

I’d be happy with the first trade. The BUF trade needs more value coming to STL, we aren’t trying to get even with BUF after fleecing O’Reilly from them. Not sold on KK either, there are better players available.
