I don't like moving Byram so fast, but he's becoming Matt Dumba 2.0. No defensive awareness and needs the puck constantly to be effective.
 
I understand this for Colorado but I don't get it for Buffalo. Aren't they really deep on LD? Odd to add another guy like Byram in this deal.

Pretty much all their LHD have been playing right D at some stage this season and not looked bad but yeah, it would've made sense acquiring a RHD.
 
I guess since Bryam is almost 3 years younger, maybe Buffalo thinks there’s more upside there?
 
Many don’t like this for Buffalo but I do.

They have a logjam at C with:
Thompson
Cozens
Mittlested
Krebs
Ohlund - coming up soon

It’s a smart more to trade from position of strength. Their center won’t suffer in the near future and they add a top 4 D.

I think Mittlsted is nice but he is not going to outproducr Thompson and Cozens…
