Quantity over quality

Quinn is already a good top 6 player Sabres have no reason to do this they finally seem they want to be serious about winning this year.

I was thinking the reason would be:

You have Kulich, Ostlund, Rosen waiting in the wings (among others). Basically you trade 2 if these 5, in order to let the others play.

If it's not these 2, then perhaps it's Kulich & Savoie, or Kulich & Rosen.

Basically the idea being that not all of your players who are high picks will be looking for extensions in the same 2 year period.

Also, you have tons of young talent, but no team in NHL history has won with a team as young as this.

Sabres trade a good roster player and a good prospect that's close to being NHL ready for another prospect to strengthen an already good prospect pool? It just doesn't make sense.

They are buying out skinner. They are going to need ELC for the bad 4 years of the buyout. It doesn’t make sense from a Sabres perspective to trade an already established top 6 forward just because they have a lot of forward prospects.

How about Rosen and Savoie
