yes please. 

To me it’s a no brainer. His contract is roughly equal to what Montour’s will be; our defense is looking pretty stout and we still have some depth coming up; we need a top 6 forward. 

If Botts won’t trade him because he traded for him last year then that’s poor asset management. Would be not all have been happy with Guhle and a first for Ehlers last season?

 Yeah, I’d like to keep him in our system and have him develop… I don’t wanna see him get traded away.  Some fans just want the finished product and don’t have the patience to see players develop.

The ideal plan for Pilut is that he dominates in Rochester, gets a few looks in Buffalo to see if his NHL game has improved enough to pencil him in to next year’s team as a replacement for Bogo or Scandella.

He’s also a potential trade piece depending on how guys like Jokiharju, Bryson and Samuelsson continue to develop.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he's a RD, while Pilut is a LD

Pilut shoots left, Borgen shoots right. It's not unheard of to use a D man on opposite sides from where they normally would play but I don't think they would. Borgen still needs to add a little more beef imo but he might be the better complimentary piece under Krueger.
