What Zucker is actually worth

Regardless of what he's worth, I'm pretty sure Minny gets fleeced in the deal.

Don't quote me but I think the rumor was Zucker would've been traded at the deadline to Calgary for a 1st round pick and Frolik but it fell through because Frolik wouldn't waive for Minnesota(cant blame him,Flames are contending,Wild aren't) so if that's true I'm guessing something similar would get it done.

Also if that is true that seems like a very reasonable cost to acquire Zucker and it makes me think Fenton is an idiot, should be able to get a bit more for Zucker.

Zucker is not worth a first round pick. Maybe if they take cap back or retain on his contract. Sabres didn't even give up a first for Skinner.

I would argue that Nylander not best prospect, I would not even included in top 5 if you count Casey and Pilut. I have no problem if we give Nylander as the main part of the deal for Zucker, but if you can get it for Sheary, Dougherty and second, then of course I would made this.

Forgot to say I disagree that he's not worth Nylander.
How much more time can Buffalo waste waiting for prospects to become effective players for them?
They need to take a step and get better and Zucker would definitely help in doing that, he's basically in his prime years and is signed to a reasonable contract.
If there was a Zucker for Nylander trade available they should do it, even if they had to add a mid round pick or something minor as a sweetener they should do it.
