Quoting: Jdfitz77
U NyR fans should just accept that you’re not gonna get Eichel for the crap offers you guys have been putting out there
We aren’t gonna “sell low” on a guy who’s under contract for
5 more years
And with so many teams sure to be interested in him,
we won’t have to worry about it with the bidding war that will ensue
If u don’t wanna be part of that bidding war.... then fine
Bc about half the league will be
And we’ll be just fine
this is a bad take. the ship has sailed on the "if an outrageous offer does not present itself, Buffalo will keep him" narrative. things are so bad between Buffalo and Eichel, that relationship is over.
in regards to interest in Eichel, it will be a bidding war from the bottom up not the top down.
sure, "half the league" is going to call on Eichel, but the number of teams that will submit quality offers is probably 5 teams or less.
if you are expecting this type of return for an injured, disgruntled, and all but demanded out Eichel - it will be a long summer for you.
regardless of the outcome, it can be guaranteed that Eichel will not be in Buffalo come next season and either will Byfield or Laf...
GOODBYE JACK!
