Nuckerfan1 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Who’d you do a trade of Rasmus Dahlin for Kole Lind OJ 1st or 2nd round draft pick (if first top five protected). Buffalo does this as they get 2 good young pieces and a high draft pick. Vancouver does this to solidify their defensive for the next decade. is it close in value?

Phil_314 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Vancouver fans probably jump all over this. Sabres fans won't like it. What you created just might be the new version of "Raymond, Ballard and a 1st" except the guys we're trading are only prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each of those pieces are good piece. OJ has top four potential and from the few games he’s played I thought looked good. Kole is playing good hockey the last couple year and with him converting to a centre makes him a little more valuable. That 1st rounder in my mind would be a top ten pick as well. I am in agreement that Buffalo wouldn’t do it either but I don’t think it’s an unreasonable proposal either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in agreement that Buffalo wouldn’t do it either but I don’t think it’s an unreasonable proposal either OJ doesn’t have amazingly, for certain potential and neither does Lind. Dahlin is just potential too but he has an extremely high potential and has already shown he has the capability of being a 50 point defenseman already. If they plan on trading Dahlin it won’t be for prospects that are already older than him either. He’s 20 and Lind/OJ are 2 years older than he is. They’ll want u20 top prospects and high picks. TBH Dahlin is young enough where he could stick around for their rebuild as well. If you wanted Dahlin without giving up one of our top young players prepare to part with Pod and/or Hog plus multiple high picks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was curious on how close the value was. That is a good point on him being young enough to be around for another rebuild and I honestly hadn’t though of it from that perspective either Edited March 31, 2021 by Nuckerfan1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s a top 10 pick then Pod 1st(top 10) 2nd or one of our better prospects like OJ/Rathbone/etc This would probably be equal value. If we are giving up a late 1st we probably have to add another significant piece like Hog/a conditional 1st/etc. Not really worth it IMO. We’re already set up at wing/LD in our prospect pool. We’d be set with Dahlin but we’d create more problems than we’d solve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because the Canucks offer are a bunch of useless players; but you don't trade a dollar for three quarters from the Sabres POV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flickyoursedin Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Lots of average pieces doesn’t get you top pieces. I wouldn’t give up a dollar for four quarters. You’re basically saying this Liljigren Robertson 1rst round pick for Quinn Hughes does that deal sound good to anybody? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
