Get this Eichel stuff over with

You need to take cap off Montréal. And that's too many pure first pick for a guy that will miss 6 months. Eichel's value took a hit, otherwise he would already been dealt

Don't think Buffalo would take a return of solely picks. They want a mix of picks and young pieces.

But i would otherwise match the asking price no?

Nobody is going to pay a kings ransom now for Eichel when they don’t have to. Why give up a ton of assets and receive an Eichel that. 1) cannot play for at least 6 months and 2) may never be the same player he was prior to the injury given the fact he has major surgery on his c-spine. Teams will wait since there is no leverage to rush into any deal now, and they will wait u til he is rehabbed and back playing to see whether he has any diminished capacity to play.

The equivalent of 4 1sts, not actually 4 picks in the 1st round.
