Minnesota isn't trading dumba. Guerin wants to resign him. Dumba loves Minnesota and just bought a house here. He has 12 or 16 team no trade. Besides this offer, wild and dumba reject.

I'd do this for the Sabres as an investment in Power for his first full year. I bet you could get a lot more though

Buffalo gladly accepts.

I'm not saying you are wrong, but who cares if he bought a house? He's worth like 30 million dollars

He just bought a house recently and moved in. It's also been made clear Guerin will resign dumba. Dumba also loves Minnesota and became of his work in the community.

Buffalo is a place that could use a veteran RD, to help anchor their young LD. But he does have the NTC which could make this more difficult. Dumba for a second Buffalo would do it one phone call no problem, but he would definitely demand more a 1st for sure and a prospect. But I do think Guerin wants to and will resign him even though his offensive numbers have dropped a bit him and Brodin make a very good line. I just hope the next contract is for less then 6 mil. He hasn’t been playing up to that number in my mind and with the cap crunch ahead.

I wouldn’t be surprised to hear Buffalo inquiring about Fiala and his availability. Prospects and Picks for the Wild and cap space could be a good match.

10 team no trade list. Guerin has never said he wants to resign him over keeping Fiala - if you can provide proof I would be more than willing to see it. The trade itself maybe a little light, however Dumba has not proved over a span of the last 5 years that he cannot play 75+ games, if thats the case why overpay for a RHD? Also - he bought a house? He traded Zucker who was a huge part of the philanthropy community from the wild (King Clancy Winner) who's family quite literally could not move with him to Pittsburgh, so that is such a moot point it is almost embarrassing.

It was Russo whose been reporting all year that Guerin doesn't want to resign Fiala and keep dumba including recent. So you can do your own research on that

I would love to see you cite a source - other than a Blanket "Russo" because he actually wrote an article specifically talking about how the wild can resign Fiala - in which he noted that Guerin would love to do it if the money makes sense. So if you would like to read that article and then cite your specific source or article I would be willing to listen - however - this is a false statement.
