I think you are shooting too high if this deal was to happen before the 2021 draft. Eichel's perceived value is just not that high at the moment. I think Adams is better off waiting and looking to deal Capt. Jack in November December once he is back on the ice and playing. Then the hope is that he plays well and you have already taken on 20% of his salary for this year.
If you were to make a deal right now with the Kings I would suggest the following:
1. Take Bjork out of the deal he just adds noise to the process
2. Eichel goes with Adams retaining 25% of his salary
3. Adams also sends the Kings the Montreal 2021 3rd Round Pick
4. Adams agrees to take back Quick and that albatross of a salary
5. LA Kings send their 1st Round Pick in 2021
6. Vilardi is perfect
7. The Kings have to send another top prospect (It is not going to be Byfield) so I say it has to be Turcotte.
