Quoting: Quaider11
Fair point
It’s possible Mitts could be available….
BUT
it would likely have to be a mid-season move
With Quinn out to start the season, i don’t see us moving Mittelstadt until he returns
At that point, we MIGHT consider trading him, but it depends how our season is going
And the obvious target for us MIGHT be one of your goalies,
but that would obviously depend on how our young goalies are doing
Also, while a Center for goalie trade could seemingly make sense for both teams, it’s probably a stretch to see the Bruins & Sabres help each other when they’re both likely competing for a Playoff spot
To answer your question about Mitts at Center:
He has played mostly on the wing here, but i feel like a lot of that has to do with him battling numerous injuries
Last season however,
when Tage Thompson went out with injury Mitts filled in & was so good, that when Thompson came back, they played him at RW2 and kept Mittelstadt at 1C
So, long answer short, he can play both.
And I’m sure he could play between Pasta & Marchand and get the puck to them
