Since the return of Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen from his injury earlier this season, the Buffalo Sabres have tried to make this three-goalie rotation work. Not necessarily because they wanted three goalies, but rather each provided something to this team that they didn't want to lose by just waiving one.

However, as the season has progressed, it has become increasingly difficult to manage, but it felt like it was only a matter of time before a trade came to fruition, allowing Buffalo to at least secure something in return.
