Similar to Duchene situation and that dragged out for sooooo long. Sakic got great value in the end but if he took those offers which were offered first.. only shit deals.
Sucks if Buffalo is forced to make a trade. You never get the best price.
Same with the Pacioretty situation.
The issue with this one is there's an injury and surgery involved. Its an added wrinkle that makes things even more chaotic and creates legitimate timetables. With a NMC and a recovery timetable there's a sweet spot here that Buffalo must find, because if they miss it then the market will dry up.
