Mittelstadt, Reinhart, Nylander, Ullmark. There's a lot of young players there with still high potential that don't need to be the next big thing with the Sabres.

Horvat, Broesser, Petersson and Juolevi (without even having to insult them) don't hold much of a candle to the young group. And they now have the expectation to carry on them the back of the team with the Sedins gone.

Veterans O'Reilly, Okposo and Ristolainen compare favourable to the veteran leadership of the Canucks including Edler and uh...hmmm, Sam Gagner still signed?
Petterson is on par with Middelstat if not better.

At the end of the day you clinger to the wrong piece. They are both dumpster fire organizations that likely have little chance of signing Tavares. No point in debating it neither team is appealing and the last thing I want is 3 pages of replies debating the crappy Canucks the shatty Sabres
