I am okay with Tkachuk as the center piece, because of his contract status, and because he hasn't seemed happy here since last year. And I think the top line would be fine without him for 3 months.

And I am okay with Valimaki being included, now that we have seen the growth from Kylington. In the summer, I would have been much less keen about his inclusion.

I read Weekes' rumour like this;

Tkachuk
Valimaki, or Zadorov
1st
One of Zary, Pelletier, or Coronato
One of Poirier, Stromgren, or whatever

If Valimaki, Sabres retain $1.8M, if Zadorov, no retention
