Crazy, won't happen and I wouldn't do it. It was fun to think about how to resolve the cap & poach an RFA from the Blues.

Eichel is more valuable than Kane. Younger, cheaper, more premium position, equal ceiling. Nope

How exactly do you plan to poach Parayko? I see no compensation if it was an offer sheet. Any offer sheet would be matched. Blues would put Parayko in a body bag rather than see him in a Hawks sweater.

Here is my frustration with the naysayers for trades like this. Kane is a 3x stanley cup champion in the prime of his career. I'm sure that has no value to a young team? I get it. cap issues, younger, cheaper, all that, and it may well be valid; but to just say I'll go with the young dude all the time is silly. Just my thoughts.

That's the question right??? Jack Eichel's BEST CASE POSSIBLE hope is to be as good as Kane is now. That's not an exaggeration either! But $10.5M in cap gets you many different quality supporting pieces and 8 years of additional play are very much a factor. Typically the argument is the best player in any trade is who wins the trade, but this a very different type of trade.
