Definitely interests me but not sure I'd pay a premium to get him because his health just scares me a bit too much. It is good to see he finally played a full season last year, but I am always leery when it comes to concussion issues.
If it was a buy cheaper situation absolutely go for it.

This isnt really a thing. Teams in division make trades in the NHL all the time.
Byram would help a lot but if the wings are using assets I would really hope its for a forward. If Cozens could find his game a bit, he fits the style of team the wings are building but it would come with some risk for sure
The mess in Buffalo makes it harder to be sure what you''d be getting with Cozens and to a lesser extent Byram. Tough for young players to develop on a dysfunctional losing team on its third GM and sixth coach in the past decade and more to come. Always thought of Cozens as better suited to W than C..
No to giving up any key pieces for Pettersson, one of the most overrated "stars" in the league.. Soft, sulky and inconsistent in what should have been a perfect situation for him and now overpaid too as a career point per game player with only one great season. One of Nate/Kasper, Augustine, protected firsts are available as the major pieces for the right guy.

Honestly I find Buffalo to be a tough trading partner because our needs are the same. Would I love to have Byram? Yep. But when I start imagining a deal, we don't really have pieces that Buffalo should be interested in (that I'd be willing to move). We both want to add young effective players, and add quality over quantity. The pieces we have that appeal to the Sabres are Larkin, Raymond, Edvinsson and Seider. They don't need unproven guys with potential, they don't need futures and they don't need third line caliber talent. That's all we have to offer.
If we can buy low on some of their pieces and put together the dreaded HFboards classic "three decent pieces for your one good one" trade, I'd love to. Cozens is a great candidate for a bounce back with a change of scenery. Byram would be a solid add for our second pair. I really think the team could use one of their offensive wingers like Benson or Peterka. I just don't see us being the team that has the right pieces to get any of them.

If Chiarot got traded , for example for prospect our defense will get worse, that is pain I willing to take, as long as we get #3 defansman later

Novak would be a good pickup, but I would look to see if Parssinen is available first, especially if theyre still moving out youngish players.

Something around Berggren for Samuelsson maybe? Berggren, Albert and Veleno for Samuelsson + a pick?
I am very interested in landing one of (or multiple of) Cozens, Byram, Samulesson and a few other guys that seem less likely.
