I don't think the Habs do that at all and Buffalo probably wants more for a move within the division

Lol listen i has seen (and offered) more from the bruins and I was called many names (oh and that was for Eichel ALONE). Sabres fans are gonna rip this apart. They just dont understand the effect that a player wanting out has on his trade value

Really? And how did that affect Duchene’s trade value? Eichel is locked into his contract for 6 years, BUF has ALL of the leverage if they want to trade him. That is unless he wants to go play in the KHL.

I missed that it COULD BE the 1st overall pick. So this isnt bad at all clearly.

But it is true. Thats why Seguin was traded for much less than he coulda been. Among other guys

Seguin wasn’t traded because he wanted out, Seguin was traded because Boston was concerned about his partying ways. And I will reiterate what is Eichel going to do? Demand a trade fine. But BUF can literally sit on him for years. Sakic is the model GM to use for this. He sat on Duchene for over a year after he requested a trade. He didn’t like the returns he was being offered, so he kept looking. BUF has literally 1000% more leverage in this situation. There is ZERO reason for them to accept anything but a premium package.

Trade doesn't benefit Buffalo one iota, ELCs are 3 x $925,000 Krug isn't wasting his time with Montreal and you can only sign him for 7 years not 8 years.

Lol ok, dosent matter to me man
Bruins and Habs are fine without him
I hope buffalo enjoys starting well and then ending poorly each year. And once Eichel refuses to play for them, he will be worth next to nothing lol so

Bettman cant get you Laf. You do get the point right? I dont need to explain it to you. If the trade happens, you arent getting Laf

I’d give a **** less about BUF, but seriously you think Eichel is going to refuse to play? Just pass up that $10M. Sure he could do it, but nobody is that dumb and what he is going to refuse to play for 6 years. The problem is you thinking his value has somehow been affected.

Thats not a problem, its a reality. His value has been effected. Sabres fans just arent accepting it. Again, he isnt worth nothing: this would be a HUGE chunk for the sabres to get back!

I think you’re crazy if you think his value has been affected at all, under contract for 6 more year. I mean he hasn’t even asked for a trade as of now.
