Meier - Sabres

Not to keen on giving up Kulich... Also, 1st would need to be lottery protected. Ostlund and a 1st with another prospect I think is more realistic.

100% i agree on lottery protection. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bruins put lottery protection considering how highly touted this draft is. Just not worth the risk. I think this is what the Sharks would ask. Tons of blue chip prospects in your system, but we would want a sniper that can either play center or wing. Ostlund is great, but personally I value Kulich a bit higher.

I'll say this again as I've said in other posts. I don't think the Sabres need to make a move on Meier. But, just for the sake of rumors and the fun of it, I'm posting what Grier would ask for.

Sabres aren't gonna include Kulich and they shouldn't have to. Good thing is if Adams jumps in the game, he does this trade knowing he doesn't have to.

Totally get it. Kulich has high upside. But, in terms of a window, does he jump into the NHL in the next year or two and start scoring 20+? Maybe? Maybe not? Meier comes in there and you have automatically one of the best top 6's in the league for years to come. Trading a high reward guarantee vs. high risk sale. I guess time will tell. What I'm picking up is Adams honestly doesn't trade for Timo because he likes the pieces he currently has.

I agree, and I really want Timo. He would take are top 9 to the next level. But the Sabres have enough assets that could be included without adding a Savoie or Kulich to a trade for him.
