Trade Info:

Pittsburgh Trade: Pittsburgh receives a solid D-man with playoff experience. I feel that a 2nd is the going rate for a player of his caliber. Fedun is a respected vet for a depleted AHL defensive squad.

NYR Trade: Could be anywhere, but Eakin is good at faceoffs and has playoff experience. That's about all he's good at, but I feel a GM will look back at his Vegas run and be willing to give a 5th for 50% retained.

Edmonton Trade: The Oilers get a defensive-defenseman to shore up their defense core and a goalie who has played well behind a poor Buffalo squad. However, a large part of this trade is also dumping Mikko Koskinen, which adds a 3rd to the acquisition cost for Hagg and Anderson.

Toronto Trade: Pysyk is a solid Top-6 defensive defenseman with good analytics for a team who has given up 4+ goals in 6 straight. A 3rd and Malgin, who has shown no wish to return to Toronto, seems like decent value. I think the Sabres would like to resign Pysyk in the offseason.

Blackhawks Trade: It was reported last trade deadline that the Blackhawks were interested in Anders Bjork. Ian Mitchell was a promising RHD prospect who has somewhat stalled, and the Sabres are desperate for RHD prospects. The pick swap attempts to assuage the Blackhawks concerns for giving up a formerly highly touted prospect (They get a pick only a few later then they picked Mitchell with). Both players are RFAs after next season. Chicago fans, let me know if this is way off.

Obviously not a professional GM nor an expert on other teams, thoughts would be appreciated.
