What would you give up for K’Andre Miller?

Miller is a 3rd line d-man on a good team.   A one to one swap for Muel, and maybe we toss in a grade B prospect or 3rd round pick.  

No way you trade Power or Byram for him and then think he is going cover those minutes.  He is not good enough and the Rangers know that.  

Sabres always working on the fringe - fooling with the 3rd pair defense and 4th line is not going to move the needle.   Improve the top 4 defense and the top 6 forwards and then move some current roster players down.  

The only 4th line player they need is one that will be an enforcer.   Sorry Kevyn, but Malenstyn/Lafferty are not that guy.   

I think he's a bit better than a 3rd line d-man, but his stock and overall play is probably at a low point coming off this year, so he's definitely a buy low situation.  As has been mentioned, my interest would be lukewarm since he'll probably command more than he's worth, and not necessarily the right fit for the Sabres.  He went through stretches two years ago, where I honestly thought he looked better than Fox, but he's definitely regressed from that.

I've already given up.

I’d rather have McDavid from the Oilers. Unfortunately neither he nor Schneider were the players in the rumor. 

 

You don’t think he’s an improvement over Muel or Clifton?  

Not really. Not at his contract price.

[OverPowerYou]

We will trade for him, he will lose his passion for the game and we will trade him to a team that wins the cup. Next.

Isn't he the Rag that spit on Tuch a couple seasons back?

Audette and Muni seemed to be able to coexist on the same team.

Rosen and second round pick for Miller. 

[steveoath]

They can choose muel or Clifton. And I’m not adding picks or prospects. Think miller is well overrated.

Good analysis. I saw more of him a couple of years ago than I did last year. Then, I thought that he was a promising player. And as you noted, at times he stood out more than Fox because of his physicality. But as usual, after time you settle down to being what you are. I would be willing to deal for him but wouldn't give up major assets for him.

Miller might be a bottom pairing guy on a good team but (assuming Byram is moved) he'd be 3rd best D man on the Sabres. 

Nobody wants Samuelsson unless we eat contract (which we won't) and Rosen has little to no value. You can make a Jokiharju for Nylander type deal with Rosen but otherwise he's a throw in. KA waited too long on moving him for real value. You want value for prospects they have to more unknown upside like Savoie had. 

So sure, I'd trade Samuelsson and Rosen for him but that's not going to happen and I'd trade Rosen and Samuelsson for a bag of pucks anyway.

Why do people assume Rosen has no value?  When we drafted him everyone knew he was going to take longer than other prospects? He was a small, undersized, underdeveloped kid with promising abilities.  But we knew he was years away.  
He’s been playing really well in Rochester and every time he gets called up he’s playing with 4th line trash. No way you can tell if someone has it that way
