I would think it to be too expensive if MTL paid more than that for Eichel. It's a defenseman market right now, his value went down in the past 6 months or so. That being said, he's a superstar center, still young on an affordable contract (IMO).
In this year's cap reality, BUF would most likely trade to the team who "CAN" trade for him rather than who "WANTS" to trade for him and that probably make Buffalo's management want to be patient because in this scenario there's slim chances that they come out on top.
