Three trades to make our arrangement complete:
To BUF: Paul Byron
To STL: Alexander Radulov, TOR 3rd 2022, BUF 2nd 2023, $375,000
To BUF: Robby Fabbri, STL 5th 2022, NJD 2nd 2023
To NJD: CHI 7th 2022
To NJD: Alexander Radulov (STL retains 50% of Radulov's 21-22 salary)
To STL: $125,000
---
How it all shakes out:
BUF gets: Paul Byron, Robby Fabbri, STL 5th 2022, NJD 2nd 2023
NJD gets: Alexander Radulov (50% retained by STL), CHI 7th 2022
STL gets: TOR 3rd 2022, BUF 2nd 2023, $500,000
---
Sabres agree. This was basically about moving Radulov to NJ for Fabbri, a 2nd, and a slight pick improvement, adding Byron for a 2nd, and STL being a fine broth of a lad for retaining on Radulov to fit him into NJ's roster (and getting an extra pick for it).
Byron feels like an adequate replacement for Radulov at roughly half the cost, and hoping to be able to retain him during in-season talks. Solid two-way guy who'll be needed in a lot of situations. Fabbri should help to jumpstart the bottom six, which has underwhelmed most of the season to date.
Great talks gents - pleasure bringing this all together.
