To Buffalo Sabres Akil Thomas (RW)
To Detroit Red Wings BUF 2021 3rd BUF 2021 4th
The Sabres have a plethora of picks in the upcoming draft and our scouts have been impressed with Thomas's development in the OHL this season, where he ranks 2nd in points with 90 (34g, 56a) in 58 games played. We therefore view this as a potentially 'low risk, high return' trade for a player who already looks like he could compete for a bottom-six spot next season.
Buffalo approves this deal.

Detroit approves of this deal and hopefully will not regret trading Thomas; however, he appears to be fully developed at this point and won't get much better and will probably not be able to move up the depth chart and get meaningful minutes in a Wings uniform.
