I don't think the Jets are keen to upset the applecart on the back-end. I could see them bringing in a super cheap depth guy if they have the space, but they're not going to offload Schmidt until the offseason, so Johnson doesnt fit this trade.

Also, I think that Lambert is pretty much untouchable at this point. If the Jets are trading a former 1st round pick, Lucius is the guy getting moved.

All of that being said, I'm pretty interested in Mittelstadt, though.

Sabres don't add anything they need, Lambert might be great for Winnipeg but he's not displacing Benson Kulich Savoie Ostland Peterka or Quinn. Sabres need RD

Maybe, but the Sabres need a shake up some how. Pretty terrible run for the franchise. Longest playoff draught and it'll be tough for them to end that this year. This deal makes more sense for the jets for sure, plus the Schmitt add doesnt make sense at this time. Like someone said above, probably figure that out next year.

They have a shakeup every 2 to 3 years lol. I definitely want to move Mittelstadt because I think he is a great opportunity to fill the only real hole they have and then they can ride this for a few years. Kinda hit a wall with Tage having back spasms and also breaking his hand, and Cozens hitting a slump, but I think both will get back on track

Sabre fan here.
Many good pieces in that trade.
If Nate was a RHD it would be difficult to say no.
As it is the Sabres keep Casey and decline the trade.
