No. He could have been playing in Dallas and had to worry about being with Blake Comeou.

My only question is why now. They got 9 games left (after tonight)

Should have signed him to a future deal that starts in 2022-2023 season as burning a year just makes no sense

He hasn’t been playing for about half a year now, safe to say his career is over.

Then again playing for Bowness is depressing on it’s own.

Do they burn a year if he only plays 9 games? Doesnt that = ELC slide?

Lots of negativity on here so I'll be the one to say it.

Krebs - Cozens - Quinn

Dahlin - Power

Is going to be an amazing string of trade requests!

No that only applies when you’re 18 or 19 in Sept. of the year you signed the ELC. So the first year for Power is automatically burnt even if he was to play in the AHL.

No #1 overall pick is signing a PTO for year 1. This is common practice for first rounders.

No but burning a year of his ELC for 8 games aint a good idea.

First rounders usually sign right after the draft not with 9 games left lul.

I would have just signed him in the summer.

I think its cause a year of his ELC is gonna be burned thats why people voted no

But if he was signed in the summer they would get that extra year.

Not that I blame Eichel for wanting out. But Eichel kinda did to himself by signing a an eight year extension with a bad organization. IMO the Sabres have turned the corner and might be considered a place to play very soon....prospects and cap space.
Heck Jersey was a place no one wanted to play, but they are turning the corner too.
