I think with the 13th pick gone and used, I'm not sure what I'd want from Buffalo.
Lysell+ from Boston is not near enough either.
There's no certainty Buffalo offered the 13th, but if they did and the Flames didn't jump at it then we really mucked that up.

Not only is there no certainty, there’s no indication at all that 13 was on offer.
Based on the lack of 1st round picks traded and the quality of return for other guys moved around the last couple of days, I think people need to significantly reduce their expectations if they think the top piece for Hanifin is going to be equivalent to the 13th pick. I’m sure the only way we could’ve gotten that, if it were an option, would be to send 16 as well.
