Can we all please agree to stop with the Eichel trades until he's actually holding out?

Yes it would be awful to get our number 2 and 3 defenseman for the next 3-5 years and our number 2 and 3 centers for the next few years. The team has no depth. This addresses it. You’re a fool. You comment on everyone’s post on a fantasy website and say how bad deals are. Let me break the news to you...the Sabres stink and should entertain offers for everyone not named Dahlin and Cozens

The fool is the person that thinks your team is better off trading a superstar center and creating a giant hole at 1C. That whole package for Eichel is trash. Get outta here with that weak stuff

A. Everyone on here overvalued Eichel he’s not getting what you think he will if he’s disgruntled and wants out. This is a fair trade.
B. Sharks won’t be trading their top two right handed forwards for a middle 6 and yet another Defenseman
HARD no on that one

The same guy who says all Sabres fans are overvaluing Eichel(who deserves to be overvalued), is overvaluing Hertl.

Do you see how when it's not your team, you can easily disregard talent? Hertl isn't even that much better then Reinhart, if at all, yet Reinhart is a middle six and Hertl is a top line player? Pot meet kettle.

I didn’t place a value on either players head!!! I noted they are the sharks top two RH forwards and that’s a fact not an opinion
I’m stating that a team any team will not trade from their weakness for a strength, it’s normally the other way. That’s all I’m saying.

Reinhardt has not met top line expectations while Hertl when healthy is our top line center (couture is slated as the top center but Hertl is the better player on our team)

I would love Reinhardt he should be a great middle 6 RW for any team!
Hertl is a center Good face off guy and a two way player Plays on the PK and Power Play and has the capabilities of putting up 30+ goals 70+ point when healthy and has a good supporting cast.

Sam is close but not as close as your saying
Big hack on Hertl is injury history and that’s legit and brings him much closer to Sam’s value, but here is the wildcard
Sharks GM Wilson is adamant the sharks are re-tooling not re-building and you don’t trade your best forward when your re-tooling unless it’s to get a better forward! Buffalo is dealing with Eichel being disgruntled and are in a win now or trade him dilemma and that puts them in a ****ty situation of either overpaying for players to win now or selling Eichel before he losses value or holds out and screws them over.

Buffalo fans I’m sorry you guys are in a bad predicament but I’m not overvaluing/ undervaluing anyone I am looking at the situation and giving my input on what I see happening, hindsight is always 20/20 sooo we will see.

You both are saying I’m short sided so let’s play devils advocate here, you have Labanc and Hertl as your top RW C
Where would you place Sam if you still had him in that lineup above? Is he ahead of Hertl? Is he ahead of Labanc?

Compared to the Sharks, the Sabres are looking like the model on how to run a franchise.. you realize your team has 4 contracts over 32 or something that total like 45M right, and finished bottom 3. Reinhart has been consistently getting better, and is younger then Hertl. He woulda been close to 60 points for the second straight, and already has 4 20+ goal seasons at 24. Hertl is a fine player, and I said he might be better the. Reinhart, not sold on it, but might be. You’ll also have to explain how Reinhart hasn’t met first line standards, but Hertl does, when Reinhart has outperformed him every season except one. The teal colored glasses are getting a little foggy.

My point was never that the Sharks should make that trade either, it’s that you ridiculously undervalued Eichel, laughably so. Zadorov, who Buffalo traded is a #5 Dman, Kadri and compher are fine players, good 2C and 3C respectively, but they’re not adding value to Buffalo for trading Eichel. All it would do is show that Kadri could never play 1C minutes, and Compher would still be the 35 pt 3C. Good, hardly ground breaking. Byram is solid, not really a need though. If Buf trades Eichel, they trade their entire offense. The big chip can’t be Byram for this reason, so he holds less value to Buf. It is a bad deal for them, and for you to think otherwise is laughable

A. Younger by two years
B. Hertl is a center and they are valued over wingers.
3. Hertl scored 35 goals last year 74 point Sam ... 22/65
4. Hertl is locked in for 2 more years Sam is a restricted FA who will want to be paid 6-7 a season.

Again I said I’d love Sam on my team.... just not at the expense of Hertl.

I’d offer Labanc and our 2 Nd for him and if you guys don’t feel that’s fair I would walk as the sharks GM

I agree with you 100%
That being said Eichel is a 10 m AAV and your trading him in a year the cap freezes meaning only a few teams will be able to take him on unless you take back cap, and with him being disgruntled most teams smell the blood in the water and are going to make the Sabres pay, given also that you just dumped your GM and will be hiring a new one who knows what’s going to happen I see you guys getting screwed as fans yet again is all I’m saying.

And yea Wilson did some **** things and I think it’s time to fire him trade what can be traded and rebuild our minors and get younger but I am not in charge.
