To Buffalo:
F- Miles Wood
F- Michael McCleod
D- Damon Severson
2019 1st Round Draft Pick

To New Jersey:
F- Ryan O’Reilly


Why Buffalo does it:
If they decide to to move O’Reilly this gives them what they’re looking for. A young winger with great speed who can play up and down the lineup.
A solid top-4 right shot defenseman who adds a hard shot from the blue line, something Buffalo lacks. And a future top-6 offensive forward with speed in McCleod.

Why New Jersey does it:
Jersey gets a top line center who can do a lot of the heavy lifting for Hischer. Zajac’s defensive role become secondary and he doesn’t have as heavy of a weight to lift protecting Hischer from d-zone minutes. Zacha can be moved to wing where he will be more effective. Hall, O’Reilly, Palmieri, Bratt, Hischer, Johansson, Zacha, Zajac, Coleman is a really solid top-9 group of forwards. With Boyle as the 4C this gives Jersey a good group of forwards with enough cap to go after a guy like Carlson, or a Mike Green.

*Added 2019 First to Buffalo to try to make more favorable to Buffalo.

Not enough from NJ.

I think Severson would be of interest for BUF in a trade, but as a add on. The main piece has to be something better.

No thanks.....was hoping for an overwhelming return for O'Reilly....this is very meh and underwhelming.

we shouldn't be trading our back end away. We just added vatanen via trade because you lack defense then we turn around and trade one of our dmen. We aren't really in a spot to be trading what it would take to acquire O'Reilly. Rather keep the course build from within and ufa.
