Let’s just say the Sabres suck again & that does cause Eichel to ask out.... then MAYBE they consider moving him..... but even then, it’s still gonna take A TON to get him, reasons being:
1- he’s still under contract for 5years, so they wouldn’t have to be in a hurry & could wait for the offer they like
2- there would be so many teams bidding on him, that it would easily increase the cost to get him
It’s just speculation what they’d want from the Flames,
but in general it would be “A level” prospects & young players and 1st rounders
And it certainly wouldn’t be pieces like Gaudreau, who’s gonna need a new contract to prevent him from going UFA
Reasonable (imo) offer i saw from an Ottawa fan:
Brady Tkachuk, pick3, pick5, pick28 (all in the 1st of this past draft), and Ottawa would also send a Cap dump or 2 to help balance the $$$
I think it would take something like that
