Sabres

Kings pass. They aren't trading one of Byfield, Turcotte, or Vilardi for Eichel. They're #1 need isn't a centre when they have those guys in the pipeline. They'll use those guys to address a need, not a want for a namesake

That is a Reinhart offer that I’d be open to circling back to in the offseason depending heavily on what happens in the playoffs.

Eichel is miles above Turcotte and Vilardi and better than Byfield. they wont miss Turcotte when their centers are Eichel Byfield Kopitar, and their wingers are scoring because they have legit centermen finally. The Kings are also left with nearly 2 lines of prospects after this trade any way. your excuse doesnt make sense

Excuse? ... maybe you didn't read it right. The Kings don't have a need for 1C. Byfield will be that guy, and he'll still likely be around 100 points per season in his prime, then Vilardi is the ideal 2C around 60-70 points, and Kopitar can be the shutdown guy at 3C. Where does that leave Eichel? Maybe at 2C but for the value of giving up Turcotte when they don't need a centre, it makes ZERO sense. They can move Turcotte to the wing and be lethal on the top 2 lines. They're more likely to use Turcotte to go get a top pairing defence to play with Doughty. That's their need: a top pairing, minute eating, left handed defence. Why would they trade any of their top young guys for a position they're already strong at? It's not logical at all. They likely target a guy like Werenski for Turcotte instead because it fills a need.

How well has buffalos wingers scored next to eichel?
