Jeez I feel bad for Eichel. Sabres are gonna ruin his career if they do that. He reaches free agency in his prime and will be washed from the awful Sabres team. Enjoy living in poverty where no players want to stay….

Quoting: Juiceman

That’d be really bad if they did that to him. Not his fault he didn’t have competent management and coaches and higher quality vets/ players around him to help him.
