Maybe because the other team is overvalueing their player(s) and he's hoping the other GM goes back to earth before he agrees on the trade. I think that was a smart move. Regier made some great/good moves in the past and he also made some bad move. Signing Ville Leino with ridiculous amount after playing one good playoff season was one of his bad moves. The guy is not perfect but I think he is a good GM.
I guess his old contract in Buffalo will expire soon(or already expired) that's why he is willing to sign as Asst GM.
