If I’m BUF I want Krebs forget the 2nd and 5th, the 1st rd picks are late ones so they have significantly less value, I mean you are talking what 24-32

Agreed. Krebs, Cozens and Glass projects as an excellent top 3 centres.

Only issue I see is how does Vegas make this work with their cap issues? Think another contract is coming back.

If that's the case, I might say Krebs, Tuch (being the young core) and a Reilly or Marssanault.

Would love to see the Vegas flip side of this and how it might be done

I signed Glass at 5.5 million, Glass plus Tuch = 10.25 million. Eichel = 10 million

I had the this discussion with someone else. If you are trading Eichel, the other teams cap issues are theirs to deal with, because you aren’t going to get true value for Eichel unless you hit on the lottery and the last thing you want is more bad contracts. If you’re the team acquiring Eichel if you can make the cap space and not kill your team you do it. For VGK just off the top of my head Pacioretty would have to be moved.

Glass RFA contract plus Tuch contract > Eichel contract.

Still need Krebs for this to make sense for Buffalo imp.

Like Tuch. Like Glass. But the picks, as mentioned, are to deep in the first for Buffalo to make headway.

Adding Krebs felt greedy to me.

I like this especially if Glass progresses into a legit #2 Center

Eichel is a clear cut franchise player. Adding Krebs may seem greedy, but I think it is marlet value. To get that package back, add a pick if you want.

Point is, Glass, Krebs, Cozens, Tuch, Reinhart long term. That looks like it could be formidable.

If it happens, it won't be enough.

In my scenario here, Glass puts up over 50 points next year and is a legit 2C.

As a base is not bad, but I would make changes.

Glass
Tuch

Hell no. If VGK were in the running if Eichel were to be moved I’d be like Krebs and Glass and 2 1st rd picks what is going to put you over the top because those 1st ain’t exactly high
