Yup and the only view that matters is how Buffalo rates those players compared to what they got from Vegas. And each team has their own book.
It could easily be:
Mangiapane - Undersized forward that rode a hot streak. Solid middle of the line-up forward but not a top line guy
Valimaki- Tracking to be a bust. Might be a final pairing guy at most.
Coronato - Good upside but years away. Ceiling is likely 2nd liner.
Zary - 2nd line ceiling. Lots to prove
Pelletier- late round pick. Slightly under-sized. Not huge skill levels. 3rd line upside.
Wolf - Undersized goalie that is unlikely to be a starter in the NHL. Might be a back-up
1st, ‘22
2nd, ‘23
If they view Krebs and Tuch as potential top of the line-up guys, then throwing a "bunch of stuff" at them doesn't matter.
It's the type of trade that works in fantasy hockey but has no basis in reality.
