Where would Rossi fit on the Sabres depth chart?
Locked in Cs: Norris (1/2C), Mcleod (2/3C), Krebs (4C).
Sometimes play C: Thompson (1/2C), Kulich (2/3C)
Likely a C on the roster by the end of the season: Helenius (2/3 C).
Even if they’ve decided Thompson is not a true C, bringing in Rossi as #2C would block Kulich and Helenius, two of their most promising young players. They’re also trying to get bigger and harder to play against - something they accomplished in bringing in Kesselring and Doan.
Trades aren’t just about value, they’re about addressing specific needs. The Sabres needed help at RD much more than they needed help at C.
