Take out lucic and okposo

Then Buffalo would have to add in a couple draft picks.

I figure ROR is better than Draisatl, and cheaper too, so actually Edmonton would be adding in the additional multiple picks. Its kind of like the Weber-Subban trade, ROR is the better C, but older and less dynamic, so if offered it straight up you'd take it because it fits what you need better than the current status.

I think they are pretty close in talent. But both need a change. Since he is so much younger Buffalo needs to add something.

No. You're getting a equally valuable center and nylander (aka a young potentially high scoring winger) to cover the age difference. If anything Edmonton adds.

Five stars for wanting O'Reilly
Thank you for commenting.
O'Reilly for Draisaitl? or are there other components that I missed?

The discussion is relating to the original trade above, but dropping Lucic/Okposo, leaving Draisatl for ROR&ANylander. In that scenario Edmonton needs to add a pick or two.

Thank you for contributing to the discussion.
I generated a new discussion that did not include Nylander and asked GMhockey99 to clarify his comment. Would you care to comment on a trade between Draisaitl and ROR? Who would need to add?

The trade I have here is what I want. Or no deal.

Thank you for your comments.
I assure you Botterill would not make this trade. I think he believes Okposo will fully recover from his near death injury, that Nylander will develop into a top 6 forward and Draisaitl, L. and Lucic, M. salaries are not in line with the direction he wants to take the Sabres.
NO DEAL!!!

I will come up with a new proposal.
