If I were Chevy, I'd really try hard to make a deal for Mittelstadt. If the deal was right, I think Buffalo would trade him, if the trade facilitated their needs. I think Buffalo would want a defenseman, and a Goalie, and one of our top prospects. Mittelstadt is a "perfect"fit for the Jets.That's why I wonder whether the Jets might consider a bigger trade either at the TDL or in the off-season to try to come up with a longer-term solution for the 2C. Mittelstadt seems like the best option out there, but he's going to be expensive. Maybe something like Vilardi and Iaffalo and a good prospect (sort of like the PLD deal). In that case, perhaps Kupari and Lambert are candidates for RW slots, at least in their early NHL careers.
I think they may accept Brossoit, Lambert and Stanley to get the deal done, and I'd make that deal if I was Chevy. Mittelstadt is "proven" and the others are not, except for Brossoit.
