Kate Pettersen: “Okay, let’s check out Buffalo as a result of we all know that they’re trying to retool for subsequent season. So this subsequent days is simply an opportunity for them to get a head begin on what they’re going to do over the summer season.
What do you suppose that Buffalo is taking a look at doing proper now? As a result of we’ve talked about Dylan Cozens, however it appears that evidently that chatter has died down a little bit bit.

Pagnotta: “They’d prefer to. Kevyn Adams wish to get a head begin on issues going into the summer season and main into subsequent season. They’ve bought a giant, their mindset is massive and targeted in the direction of the playoffs for subsequent season.
Clearly, every little thing’s written on the wall proper now for this yr, however they need to get a head begin on issues, and that’s why we’ve heard Cozens so usually this season. He’s accessible, however they need to make a giant hockey-type transfer involving any of their younger studs.
Now, there are quite a lot of groups which might be calling or have referred to as and inquired about Alex Tuch. My understanding is he’s not untouchable, however he’s shut. Him, Tage Thompson, Rasmus Dahlin, I imply, these two guys, not available on the market. Alex Tuch is as near that as they will get.
Except they’re making a big hockey commerce and nearly an improve, I don’t see Alex Tuch getting moved forward of the deadline. They’re not going to maneuver them for futures. Buffalo doesn’t need draft picks and younger prospects. They need NHL-caliber studs now in the event that they’re going to maneuver any of theirs.
