I think they would absolutely need to attach an asset to move him in the current market. He has a magnificent shot which can be lethal on the PP but outside of that (from my viewing at least) he is a really painful player to watch. Compare to someone like Mike Hoffman except a poor man's version. It's not a guy you want if you are trying to win.
I mean just think about it. BUFFALO doesn't want him. It's not like they are some top tier team with excess talent on their roster.
