Friedman had another example recently that escapes my mind.
As teams build up their rosters, they don't have room to play them all. Those create opportunities.
I used Buffalo as an example because I think they have too many of the same type of players and they aren't all going to fit.

True. But I’m still concerned about upside.
Gauthier is a great example, Ducks gave up an older prospect and a 2nd round pick. And got him when he was still 20. I’d do that all day.
