Sabres fan here
The thing about Mitts is that he’s finally managed to stay healthy the last 1.5yrs, and bc of that we’ve seen him take a pretty big jump in his development
Pretty sure we sign him to a long term deal, as long as he doesn’t want too much
And you’re right, we are loaded at Center, & have more coming
But the cool thing (for us anyways) is that almost all of our Centers & Center prospects are also adept at playing on the wing
This includes Mitts (plays a lot of LW), Savoie (plays RW), and Kulich (also plays LW)
Now it is entirely possible that we could move a Center,
or more likely, a Center prospect….
but it would have to be in the “right” deal
Likely a top4 quality RD who is defensively oriented
Idk that it’s something we are actively looking to do though
So if u really want Mitts, the offer probably has to be “too good to refuse” for our GM to pull the trigger
I doubt he’s going anywhere though
