Description

I think any team should try to trade for Eichel now, when his value is lowest.
If Eichel is somehow playing for BUffalo (to prove that he is back after the surgery...whatever that may be) and is lighting it up (or even doing well) that only helps Buffalo ask for more.

I argue that a team should give the Sabres what they want now and take the risk rather than have Eichel come back and play until teh trade deadline and possibly really increase his value.

The players from Montreal will get Buffalo to the salary cap floor.

I don’t see Suzuki or Caufield as part of the deal you don’t get it done without one of those two sorry

Friedge said that Eichel is likely to fail his physical and not be cleared to play. So Eichel saga is far from over. But he wants to play in Olympics so somethings gonna have to budge eventually.

Neither is worth losing for damaged goods, Buffalo wouldn’t see either since they won’t let Eichel recover.

Apparently Eichel at 10m is Eric Lindros on an ELC now. I can't wait for this to be over.

Lindros's trade had infinitely more value than this
