No to the montreal trade. Theres a lot going on with the reinhart and eichel ones, but they look like fair offers at least.

i dont see a point of trading reinhart unless a impact player is traded back. I would rather trade eichel and let sam and dylan play together

Buffalo fans need to get it out of their heads that they're getting five 1st round picks for Eichel from any team, including the Kings.

Take out Vilardi and the 2022 first and that's exactly the trade that's appeared on NHL.com

Would never trade Sam unless forced. I love Sam, but especially if Jack goes, gotta think Sam wants out, and may get vocal with it, or be very very difficult to resign.

Eichel is 24, a franchise center, that has shown elite offensive, and even defensive abilities at such a young age, while being signed long term at a fair deal. Also, doing this while playing for Buffalo, I would be very surprised if teams aren't going to be throwing asset after asset

I think the Flames would be hesitant, Bennett is a non factor and can get on the next plane to anywhere but Zary being just drafted and produced in Stockton before he had to go back to the WHL along with Ruzicka who should be the next C up for the Flames it would deplete an already questionable pipeline of talent. Reinhart is a phenomenal piece but I don't think the Flames move on form those two so quickly.

Then prepare to be surprised. You don't need to look any further than Buffalo to know that it's not just a franchise center that makes a team any good. Teams won't empty their banks for a single player, regardless of who it is.

That may be what he is valued at, even if I disagree with it. My point is that teams simply won't do it because it doesn't make any sort of sense to give up that much.

As a Habs Fan I think a first and Poehling for Hall who probably doesnt resign in MTL is to much

Take out one of the 1sts, one of Vilardi/Turcotte, and one of Bjornfot/Clague, and the Kings would consider it, although Buffalo would have to take back Jeff Carter for salary reasons.

penguins decline. That 2nd is most likely already going to Seattle.
