To MONTREAL:
Patric Hornqvist
To BUFFALO:
Rem Pitlick MTL 2nd 2020
The Sabres agree to this deal. Hornqvist is a leader and someone to model younger players after, for sure. However, we had an extra NHL-level forward and we felt he would provide a good return that would fit within what we're looking to do in the long term.
Pitlick has some more development but hopefully can be a pro contributor in a few seasons. The added 2nd round pick gives us now five selections from #42 to #71, which should provide ample prospects who will contribute over time as well.
Good talks Lennart, and welcome!

Montreal agrees to this trade. Hörnqvist is a hard working player that won´t fear the pain associated with the battle in front of the goalie. At the same time he still got skating, passing and scoring qualities of his own good enough to create a lot of problems for the opposition. We believe he still has a few good years in him and believe we get a quality winger at a fair price.
Nice doing business with you sir and nice being here!
