To BUFFALO:
Ben Hutton
Glenn Gawdin
Rory Kerins
ARI 2nd 2022
LAK 1st 2024
To LOS ANGELES:
Ryan Ellis
Zach Hyman
VGK 3rd 2022
Sabres agree. First of a few deals I'm sure as we are obviously sellers at this deadline. This is a biggie though as it clears a ton of salary and resets what turned out to be a mistake in signing Ellis, who just did not fit here despite many attempts to make it work.
Hyman was decent but fell off a bit, and since we aren't seemingly playoff bound, it made sense to move him too.
Gawdin is having a career year in the minors so hopefully he will be a decent grinder for me. Hutton fills a need cheaply for a couple years, while Kerins looks excellent despite being a 6th round pick. Obviously getting the 2nd and 1st was key to me pulling this trigger, even though the 1st is down the road.
Great talks Kyle! Good skill in your playoff hunt.
