Reporter out of LA already said the kings arent going for eichel. But yeah they are the best fit for the return coming back to Buffalo.

Bjornfot and Anderson are untouchable from LA. Swap Bjornfot out for someone else and that's probably about right in terms of value.

EIchel's advisors and the Sabres can't agree on whether he need surgery or not, so any GM who would even consider making such a franchise-changing trade like this before that issue is resolved, and he's demonstrated that he's fully recovered from his injury, shouldn't be in control of anything above a peewee team.

if the kings want eichel nobody is untouchable on their side. there’s only about 7-8 franchise skilled players and eichel is one of them. he’s a 100 point player on a good team. and a guy like bjornfoot who does have a lot of potential but he isn’t even proven would easily go in an eichel deal.

Not true. LA will not trade Byfield, Anderson, Bjornfot, or Petersen in an Eichel trade. Any of those players are deal breakers and would result in LA walking away from the negotiating table if Buffalo insisted on any of them.

no they’re not. none of them are proven nhl players yet proven nhl superstars. if you’re going after a superstar player it’s gonna have to be an overpayment

I'm sure that's true. That's why it's being reported that LA is no longer pursuing Eichel. I'm sure Buffalo insisted on one or more of those players and Blake told Adams to kick rocks.
