I imagine Buffalo would prefer some impact roster players over just 1st rounders too. I can't see them going into an obvious rebuild again this soon.
Hanifin is in there. He and Dahlin give them the foundation for the defensive core.

I don’t think you get Eichel without an overpay. It’s an organization altering acquisition. We’d have the pieces to compete, legitimately, for the next half-decade at least.

Whoever gets Eichel, it’s going to be a “good grief they paid a lot” reaction. I’d sooner be the team to pay the price, than not. The only other way to get a piece like Eichel is tanking for multiple years and getting lucky in the lottery.
