To DET: Pekka Rinne Ryan Lindgren Jake Virtanen
To BUF: Carey Price Mitchell Stephens Brinson Pasichnuk (Prospect) VGK 4th 2021
Detroit accepts the above stated trade, it's hard loosing Price and with that seeing my chanses for the cup becoming alot smaller this season, but to aquirre Lindgren and Virtanen made it impossible to pass up, and the fact that I have a deep goalie future brewing in Primeau, Brattstrom, Melnichuk, Sandstrom and with Ullmark ready to take over the no.1 spot next season I feel confident that this is the right now to make.
Thanks for the interesting talks Thomas, always a pleasure.

Sabres agree to this deal.
Didn't come into today thinking I'd part with Lindgren and Virtanen, but after researching it a bit, it made sense in order to secure my starting goaltending situation for the next four years at least. Allows me to develop my goalie prospects slower, for sure.
Stephens is someone I think I can develop into a solid contributor and need more assistance on that front at C. So while losing Virtanen stings a bit now, we have a few candidates already who should be able to step up.
Good talks sir!
