He has a NMC but you could have a deal on your hands if the player is willing.Extended Buchnevich for your 1st and 3rd.

Buffalo isn't a player away from shit all.
Moving the 11th pick would be moronic.

If D - something around Cam Fowler. 2 years left, M-NTC but he's from Ontario so likely happy if Buffalo come calling. He'd add experience to a young D core.
The Ducks also have Ryan Strome but he's not the sort of 3C they need (but would be an upgrade with experience at present)
Not possible as the draft is in Juneobviously Rantanen with a 7 years contract should be signing
Buffalo fans having been pining after him all year, and Kulich or any other prospect would likely be available for him. I guess his availability depends on what happens with Karlsson and Stephenson...they could be desperate for centers sooner than later.I could see Vegas making Nic Roy available. Not sure if they would be interested in 11th OA though, probably one one of your ELC prospects like Kulich instead.
Stephenson is almost certainly gone but Karlsson is locked up for the same term as Roy right now. getting someone like Kulich to come in on an ELC for 3 more years and possible jump directly into a top 9 role would be pretty big for them. I'm not a Vegas fan so I can't speak for them thoughBuffalo fans having been pining after him all year, and Kulich or any other prospect would likely be available for him.

True but you can have a agreement with him before.Not possible as the draft is in June
It seems they had terrible analytics in pair, also not suitable.So Byram - Jokiharju it is!
You really can't. You can't officially talk negotiations until the final year of your deal and you can't give a player permission to talk to another team for no reason at all. Rantanen has significantly more value to Colorado than he does on the market. Just like with Marner you aren't getting more than a full years rental value for him, especially not before teams can legally talk to himTrue but you can have a agreement with him before.
We need a top 4 RD like DeMelo or Roy type because Jokiharju can't pair well with either Byram or Power and we can't rely on Samuelsson because of his injuries. We definitely need a right-handed defenseman, although 3C is a higher priority right now.Buffalo DOES NOT need any D. Dahlin, Power Samuelson Byram Joker Clifton Ryan Johnson. Where is there space? Center or winger only. Bad team D on a team with poor structure does not mean you need to upgrade your D.
Also please don't bother asking for Peterka. We are not trading our potential 40 goal scorer on a team that struggles to score.
Everybody talk before a trade . Often a New contract is announced just after the trade. Or after 1 july. A value for a top 5 winger in a league is very high.You really can't.

I would think this would be a piece that remains with the team long term. If they add even one player who is a legitimate factor coupled with the goaltending stability they seemed to find down the stretch they should absolutely challenge for playoffs.Buffalo isn't a player away from shit all.

Players who are traded are almost always in the final year of their deal, especially in a summer deal. Very rarely is a player entering their final year before UFA traded in the summer prior to the draft. Here is the list of all those players moved for 1sts from that respective years draft since the 05 lockout:Everybody talk before a trade . Often a New contract is announced just after the trade.

He is on such a good contract and has untapped upside, I think he's one of the least likely on the roster to moveI could see Vegas making Nic Roy available. Not sure if they would be interested in 11th OA though, probably one one of your ELC prospects like Kulich instead.
And he plays a premium position. If he played wing, he wouldn’t be nearly as valuable imo. But yeah, he’s great and still getting better.He is on such a good contract and has untapped upside, I think he's one of the least likely on the roster to move
Not necessarily. It could help set things up further. I look at the Miller trade, basically cost them 20th overall. While the Canucks were much more than one player away from anything, they would be way worse off using #20 than they would have been with Miller.Buffalo isn't a player away from shit all.
