Nah, but imo it breaks down like so:
Tkachuk+zary= eichel
Zary is worth slightly more than a 1st. He had a great d+1. Eichels injury makes him uncertain. Tkachuk is far and away the best chance at a franchise piece on the table for him.
Backlund+1st+3rd 2021 = reinhart
Backlund is cost controlled and proven to work well next to Tkachuk. That's a line. Imo this part of the trade is actually in favor of Buffalo because Backlund contract is certain and reinhart is pending Ufa. We have an extra 3rd.
Then try monahan+valimaki for laine...
