That’s too much for Eichel :/ If MTL trade Caufield for Eichel it is max Caufield + 1st 2023
Quoting: TML2021
The ONLY untouchable for eichel should be suzuki. Caufield is great but incredibly overrated
I do not want to get into a discussion of who is over rated or not, but I will agree that including Caufield is not in MTL best interest if they want to improve.
OK they lost Kotkaniemi so include his assets into this trade, make it MTL 2022 1st, drop Caufield and Byron them with Drouin.
Buffalo gets two first this year for a total of 4, and additional 3rd round pick this year, two projects Lehkonen, and Drouin as well as a future prospect Mysak.
While there are not any marque prospects there is enough to consider the trade.
Buffalo fans will be disappointed, but if Drouin and Lehkonen can reproduce their best years in Buffalo, it would soften the blow.
