BUF passes. Pens don’t have the package it would take nor does it really make sense for them.

Ridiculously easy no. You get hung up on for this offer.

Remove Zucker and add wingers Guentzel and Reese and you may have a deal. But probably the ask is Guentzel and Kapanen

The words Eichel, Pens, and reality do not belong together

I think a more realistic package looks like Marino, Guentzel (OR Rust) or Kapanen), Zucker, Aston-Reese, and a prospect and/or pick.

Buffalo has said it wants four pieces in return for Eichel. If the Pens want to beat other teams with better prospects they'll have to offer up four quality pieces who can play now. Marino is likely a place to start as Buffalo has good young LD but no RD. One of 59/17/42 would absolutely be the next ask.
