Wait, pieces the Buffalo Sabres should want to acquire at the deadline?

Yes, despite the Sabres' current position in 30th in the NHL, there is a real possibility they not only will be adding players at the deadline but players who will play a key role for them next season and beyond.

The traditional school of thought says the NHL draft is a far more suitable place to make seismic roster moves than the trade deadline, and with good reason. No one wants to completely implode the team and/or team chemistry to make the big move midseason.

That notion went to die last week when Sabres general manager swung one of the biggest trades in recent memory with Kevin Cheveldayoff, the general manager of the Winnipeg Jets.

So who should be in his crosshairs on or before March 2?
