Thank for making a great trade.
There are so few this was truly refreshing.
While the Sabres drafted Ostlund before Kulich Noah may have slipped in the depth charts.
While not fully accurate Dobber ranks him behind Kulich, Wahlberg and Savoie and Hockey Writers mid season does not rank Wahlberg as highly.
Therefore Buffalo is trading away depth for a need.
All trades invovle risk, this deal gives Buffalo two chances to win, Barron and the first.
Make the deal and expect to win twice.

I think u could reason both ways
Just as easy to see the Sabres not thinking Barron is the future “top4” answer &amp; the pick is obviously a question
Also, the Sabres really like Ostlund &amp; might not wanna give him up- even if Kulich has passed him in the depth chart

So while (in general) i agree that it’s trading depth for a need,
it’s very possible that’s not the asset we would move- or the piece we’d want


But i do agree,
FINALLY a reasonable trade offer from a Habs fan
