Thats not even a question. A valid question is: Is Eichel a Hart Candidate? I would say absolutely

Yes Buffalo has a steal at that cap hit for a franchise center. But it's Buffalo so I'm sure they will f if up

Eichel needs his robin, not sure if skinner is it or he needs a top 4 on blueline, dahlin definitely a start, but also get beyond a bargain tender.

He definitely is. In Dahlin and Eichel, with the right supporting cast and goalie, Buffalo is a major contender.

Skinner was not the answer. Buffalo should not have signed him. He would have fetched the Sabres a good draft pick. I alway been leery about his injury history. As he ages, it can only get worst.

He needs to play 200 feet, and he will be great. The definition of a franchise player to me is being able to evaluate his game, and make his line mates and
team mates better.
