We won't be trading Alex Iafallo for another middle-6 forward. And since you're not ABOUT to trade us Matt Samuelsson for him, we'd only be interested in the Philly second and your 2024 third.

Iafallo is not a priority add for Buffalo. We'd give value back for him as part of a bigger deal for a RHD if LA wants cap relief, but he's not of interest as a standalone piece.

I wouldn't argue on the value given Kisakov (smallish but talented former 2nd rounder) in the Vegas trade. But right now, Kisakov is the only Russian in our development system. We have several more Russian teenagers who have just signed ELCs that we need to bring over and help acclimate to life in the US.

Given that, I think he has unusual value to the Sabres right now beyond his worth as a hockey asset. We definitely want to treat him well.
