Team: 2021-22 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Aug. 1, 2021

Published: Aug. 1, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Let Eichel get his surgery, when he decides that he is well enough to play then let him do a LTIR loan to the sabres ahl team in Rochester. If Eichel doesn't agree then let him sit. At this point in time, I don't care if he sits for 5 years and does nothing.. If he really wants out then he will go and play in Rochester and light it up..

I wouldn't let him sit on the sabres bench, ROR called him out and I think the rest of the league sees it now... There will be some team that says they can fix him. So I am sure the sabres will get something. (bag of pucks)

At least 5 more years of shi..y hockey in buffalo.

Yeah I don't recall this either. I remember him being absolutely miserable in Buffalo, but I don't remember h directing it at anyone in particular. Except that one time he directed it towards a Tim Hortons

He is not 100% of the current problem(s). If we dumped Eichel instead of ROR then I am positive the sabres wouldn't be picking first this year. It would be ROR team not some kid who gives up on plays and only hits when he is mad. I hope he goes to NY, you will see for yourself what a selfish player he is.

Here is the ROR eichel fire: https://buffalohockeycentral.com/2018/02/01/is-there-beef-between-ror-and-eichel/

That's speculative, but it wouldn't surprise me. It's also not enough on its own to suggest it's a problem.
Teammates squabble all the time. They are also expected to bury it quickly.

Sure you lend LTIR Eichel to Rochester for 10 days for rehab. But don't fool yourself, Eichel is a going to report and be a Sabre. He isn't going to "sit" for five years.
What benefit would it be for Sabres to treat a player poorly in the eyes of other NHL players? Just so much more difficult to sign UFAs, or even get your own players to commit to the Sabres long term, and more NTC restrictions from non Sabres.

What an easy way to ruin a players career. I’m sure the Buffalo Sabres are gonna look real good on this one….
