Looks like a whole lot of you don’t know who Barabanov is. 1st for him is more than fair. Cap hit of just over a mil with retention for a player who could put up 60 points isn’t some crazy trade. Maybe it’s not Buffalo but a team would certainly give up a 1st for him.
Actually we do know who he is!
He is Olofsson with assists instead of goals and
the worse +/- among all Sharks.
Generating assists and not goals as he plays primarily with Couture and Hertl, two of the top forwards in the NHL does not guarantee any team will give up a first for him.
Guarantee if Olofsson had the luxury of playing with Logan and Tomas, you would think Victor was a god.
The problem is you do not know the Sabres.
Next year he will be the second oldest Sabre after Jeff Skinner.
Buffalo has two 20 yo who will probobly exceed his pt total next year Quinn and Peterka. with two more 18 yo who will be in the NHL the following year Kulich and Savoie.
He would most likely play the third line meaning assists will not be easy to get.
This is such an easy no as you may get a second from another team but certainly
not a first from Buffalo
EDIT:
Here is a trade Alex and 2nd for Olofsson.
13 goals for 24!
Put Victor on the wing with Couture and he gets 35 goals next year, making Buffalo look silly for trading him.
