Hamilton’s + Backlund + Stajan (Brouwer ain’t waving as stated, Stajan helps make the dollars work)
RoR + Kane + McCabe (Ristolainen ain’t going anywhere)
I would do this, but Buffalo hangs up the phone. Calgary gives up two assets with positive value, and two with negative value. Buffalo gives up three assets with positive value. Also, I think they give up the best overall assets and really get little for their future. I would rate the assets the assets as DHamilton, RoR, Kane, Backlund, McCabe, FHamilton, Stajan in order. I just don't see the value there for Buffalo. If there is a trade to be made with Buffalo it is going to cost futures, and likely our best young players. If I'm Buffalo I'm asking for one of Tkachuk, Jankowski, or Bennett off the roster, and a combination of Valimaki, Andresson, Fox, and Dube in a deal for any one of Kane or RoR. Young cost controlled players are the targets for every team now and Buffalo will be targeting those players if they being a sell off of their stars.
