Description
Sam Reinhart is the player that fits the needs of LA, much more so than Eichel. Is there a trade to be made here? And is it less than just offer sheeting the guy 7mil with the pitch of LA vs Buffalo (and all that entails -- organizational stability, weather, top-tier prospects coming up, etc)?

What's a trade for Reinhart have to include?

If I was LA, I would put Byfield in a deal for Eichel without hesitation.

My point is simply that a center isn't what addresses the needs of the organization. A scoring right winger? Much more in line with what the Kings need, and they could do it without trading away their prized prospects. And if it was a trade, it wouldn't cost NEARLY what Eichel would. You might be willing to give up Byfield, but LA is certainly not.

Jack Eichel is who the team hopes QB becomes one day, and we'll be lucky if he hits that ceiling. He is exactly the Sabre that we're looking for.

Let me be clear, I DON'T THINK WE COULD PULL IT OFF, but to go Eichel-Kopitar-QB down the middle is elite. Even if it means giving up Kupari,Kempe,Turcotte+Pick++, that's instant relevance.

Reinhart @7for6 is worse than the Lucic contract we luckily avoided. Way too much to pay, especially when the team clearly needs to add at the defensive end (Matta failed experiment), instead of the front (all the prospect depth in the world).
