Quoting: NotDougWilson
Can't see the sharks giving up a pick unless it's in the later rounds (5,6, 7). My guess is that you have the right prospect(s)/young players on here. Mittelstadt is 24 and fits into our timeline and we'll either look at Rosen/Ostlund. Another option is Savoie, but with less line items attached to the trade (Savoie and a 1st that's it).
Reasonable
I think the Sabres MGMT would be less likely to trade Savoie bc we *just* drafted him- and in the top10
Also, the way our young forwards on the team are playing (as well as adding Meier) gives us leeway to develop Savoie a little more slowly.
However, Savoie is the most talented of the group offensively-
and since we currently are one of the top scoring teams in the league (plus, again, adding Meier) we might be more willing to trade the better offensive talent if it means giving i guys less assets
I obviously can’t tell you which way Sabres mgmt is leaning,
but we do have plenty of pieces to make a deal happen
Biggest issue i could see is that we might not wanna outbid Jersey (or whoever) to get him
*although i think we should
