This would be with Buffalo agreeing to the 8 year ask from Anderson and Dahlin convincing him to come. Buffalo takes one of Calgary’s mid 20’s wingers making $5M+ and gets a good prospect, cheap NHLer, and a mid 1st.
Calgary gets in the top 10 and gets 2 RFA’s they are willing to sign for 7-8 year deals at their asking price.
Is it just way off? Bad for the Sabres? Bad for the Flames? Do both 1st need to be in the deal? Take out Sharky/Farabee? Add Zary?

I feel like Buffalo is giving up the 3 best pieces out of the deal. Before all the Andersson apologists come attacking me, a) Andersson is a UFA in 2026 and b) doubtful he extends in Buffalo. If he signs a big deal in Buffalo, it’s likely in 2026 when he can get a lot of money from them. Pure speculation on my part but I think he’d want to compete for at least a season.
