Description
Some spitballing here. Not sure the Habs should be willing to move Suzuki, but if I'm Sabres trading Eichel to Habs I need to get Suzuki in return. Go ahead and pick this apart. Not sure who Sabres loses to Seattle in this scenario.

Respectfully disagree with you on thus. Don't think reinhart is worth three 1st round pick or more

Dumba 1 for 1 for REINHART is more than enough

Reinhart isn't a true c. He's 36 percent on faceoff

Greenway is worth more to wild . His play with Joel Eriksson Ek, & Marcus foligno is more than enough

You may be correct that I am over valuing Reinhart, I think he has transitioned well to center though. As far as winning faceoffs I think if he spent a off season working on that he could be respectable.
Greenway is back to disappearing for stretches again. When he plays like he can he is a fun player to watch but most of the time he is just a guy Ek has to drag around. I dream of a Foligno-Ek-Fiala line or even replace Foligno with Boldy and play Foligno with Sturm.
Anyway I'll keep what you said in mind.

Substitute Romanov for one of Brooke/fluery/norlinder/Harris and maybe add a pick, and I would take that as a habs fan. I know other habs fans will cry about giving up Suzuki but eichel is worth doing it for 100%.

Reinhart was drafted as a center and started out there. My issue with Reinhart is that he's on record with the media that he dislikes playing the center position and prefers to play the wing.

He largely only played center this year out of necessity.

I'm not interested in him because of this, even if he can play the position. Good player, but he neither wants to be a center or would be a good fit for us there because of it.

I wasn't aware of those comments, but if that's the case then I too am no longer interested.

I would be interested in moving a greenway for mittlestadt or cozens, I’m not sure mittlestadt is more than a middle 6 C at best and think cozens projects as a 2C, but think either would be a reasonable gamble worth taking.

No way Sabres are selling Cozens, he has potential and he has a great attitude which this team needs. Mittens intrigues me but he probably costs more than I'm willing to give up for him.
One thing to consider about Eichel and Reinhart is that they are both right hand shots which Wild severally lack.

Substitute Eichel for McDavid, oh wait you can't that's why this is so ridiculous. Montreal is not giving up Zuke + Romy + Primeau + 1st for Jack Eichel! Eichel may not even come back as the same level of player, Sabres fans know this why do you think so many are trying to unload him now instead building around him for the future again?! About 75% of neck and back surgeries are successful and 50% of them allow the patient to return to their normal lifestyle, it drops significantly for pro athletes (partly because of lack of data partly because of the player not returning to sports). Yet your willing to risk Zuke + 3 other really good prospects for that?! Ridiculous!

Relax Doctor, I said substitute Romanov for another defence prospect which he have tons of. Get rid of old man Weber, a 1st rounder for a team who is notoriously bad at drafting. Primeau who is promising, but we have price for the long haul so why value a guy so high who will be a back up for so long? And Suzuki is good yes, but at most he’s a 80 point guy? Potentially? Eichel when healthy is an elite center which the habs have been dying for, Suzuki highest ceiling would be a healthy Eichels worst year, wake up
