Trade: Mitchell to Montreal

Mitchell is an UFA. Flynn is about to be an RFA. Very big difference when it comes to return.

Anything for Flynn was good, anything for Mitchell was good, so it's all good. Hanging on to them was bad, very bad. There are a dozen more just like them that will be around come summer, same as we got Mitchell.

Yep. Let that sink in. Someone held onto Mitchell for too long.

I'm not going to worry over 3rd and 4th liners, especially 3rd and 4th liners on the Sabres. They're a very special type of NHLer. Seriously, we're not missing much and if we are, we can re-sign them this summer.

I don't think there's an incorrect thing in your statement.  Still, he hung on to Mitchell too long.  The fact that Flynn got a better return pretty much seals that.

If you want to compare Flynn to Mitchell look at their contract lengths. That's the determining factor.

Huh? No.  Flynn has a good chance of being in Montreal's minor system (forgot the team) even this year, and certainly next.  Mitchell does not.
