Philly just makes way more sense, and I think it's borderline silly to even brainstorm trade scenarios with Buffalo - especially when you're demanding Cozens and an 8th (in an extremely strong draft).

Obviously they would. That Philly package is terrible and they get their hometown boy.
The Sabres are sick of drafting and waiting for help. They basically have to sell assets for help now or Eichel is going to ask for a trade. 8th OA and Cozens for a PPG winger isn't a stretch IMO especially for a desperate team.
