it isnt worth a 3rd round pick to clear 500K for a year.. oilers pass.
also probably see eichel demanding a trade as soon as he is announced as a senator

Unless It’s for off ice reasons, Ottawa would be the best fit for him. This would be a competitive team with him and probably will be very good once JBD and Sanderson are ready by next year

americans have a history of preferring to stay in the states. Ottawa in the last 5 years has also been a train wreck for the most part both on and office.
Im sure he will want to stay in the states and end up on a NYR or LA or ANA before OTT. he doesnt have a NTC or NMC yet but i dont think he is one to be shy and say I dont want to play there.

Sure, but this team might not be terribe enough to win the lottery, a backhand complement to their young players! Buffalo will be a far worse team despite the Eichel trade, and will have a better shot at Wright. Arizona might also be worse.

I think you're right on a lot of fronts, but with a SUPER strong top 2 and a fair few good prospects other than Wright/Lambert any high pick this year would be great
