If the issue is being competitive during the next two years of Sutter's tenure...

Tkachuk + Backlund (1.85M retained) + Valimaki

... would be an extremely enticing package for Buffalo. Backlunds cap salary would be 3.5Million/3Years, and two high end young pieces for a disgruntled player coming off an injury.

Eichel
Lindholm
Monahan
Zary/Gawdin/Ruzicka

is very strong down the middle, with a solid goalie in Markstrom. The rest of the team would literally have to be average, and that is a contender.
