Description

Sticks to Holland's philosophy of only paying firsts for term/control.

Rodrigue is a really fun piece but I don't have a ton of faith in a rookie backup during our window and I'm 99% certain they'd lose him on waivers next year. UPL is still young and under control, maybe Rodrigue fits Buffalo's next window a bit better than he fits Edmonton's current window.

The options for upgrading on Ceci are slim. Carrier and Fabbro are almost interchangeable with the exception of how their contracts expire.

I would kick tires on a Broberg-Kaliyev swap at the draft.

Short on value or no appetite to move UPL?

Rodrigue and Luukkonen are 1 year apart in age. Same window. He's also having a pretty good year. One of like 4 sabres who can say that. The only way they trade him for a goalie nobody has ever heard of (sorry Olivier) and a 3rd rounder is if they immediately follow it up with an announcement that they are relocating the team to Houston.
