            Looking at it as a Sabres fan, I'd be happy with any of those but the Florida trade.

            I don't think any of the teams would accept those moves.

            I’m getting real tired of saying the same **** over and over again. And I’m sure Kings fans can agree with us.

            Zegras isn’t being moved. It’s already been crisp clear that he isn’t.

            Byfield isn’t being moved either.

            The Florida deal does look very good for Buffalo. Yandle has a no movement clause so he probably wouldn’t be coming, but they could replace him with someone else’s salary.

            You're going to be very disappointed when you see what they get for a damaged Eichel.

            Didn’t realize you were so tight with all those GMs that you’d know that info?!
            That’s pretty amazing

            Not bad sir
            I’d slightly amend each one….

            You’re high to think that. Panthers are giving up the most in these trades. Those are two top 20 prospects in the league while the other teams are giving up 1. Maybe the picks are higher. And yandle retained 50% will net you more picks and a prospect.

            Forgot Kaprizov in the Wild trade too. I'm sure it's just an oversight.

            Welcome to CapFriendly and you will see once you've been a member for a while there is always a player like Eichel that takes up half of the ACGM posts.

            Except that NONE of us know what these GMs are thinking
            So go troll elsewhere

            Seems pretty unanimous in this thread that none of the other teams are interested. It’s just the Sabres fans that are delusional enough to think they’ll be getting a return like this. It’s simply not gonna happen. Look at the Karlsson trade, the Seguin trade, the Thornton trade. None of those were anywhere close to any of these returns, and several of those guys were arguably more valuable than Eichel is now at the time they were dealt.

            In the case of the Wild trade, the trade above is too much and wouldn't work for the Wild. Why would they give up their center who just came in 4th on Selke voting when the goal of an Eichel trade would be for them to have Eichel-Ek as their 1-2 punch down the middle? Fiala may need to go to clear cap, but Boldy probably stays so they can shoot for a Cup next year. Any team acquiring Eichel is doing it to win now, so they're not mortgaging their immediate future.

            I don't think it's unreasonable to say the Sabres are NOT going to get these types of deals. None of us know what the exact deal will be, but it's pretty safe to say it's not the OP's packages. If you think the Sabres are really going to pull something like one of the packages listed, you're just setting yourself up for disappointment.

            Let’s say you’re right
            Why do u care that myself & other Sabres fans will be disappointed?

            Also…. There’s a way to voice that opinion without being the douchebag that MANY on here are being

            Full disclosure, I don't care that you guys are going to be disappointed. But you're talking about people being douchebags and making this an unpleasant place to spend time? That's exactly what a lot of Sabres fans are doing when they post that the return is going to be something like one of these, and anything less doesn't get it done. Considering half of the threads on here are Eichel threads, it's pretty prevalent.

            Like you said, no one really knows what the deals going to be, but Sabres fans refuse to yield that it might not actually take 3-4 of a teams top 6-7 assets, and it's become insufferable. It prevents any real discussion from happening.
