I'm sorry, but I can't help but get annoyed at such a one-sided deal. I mean, do you really think that deal works from an ANA perspective? I mean you have our #3 D-man + our top 2 forward prospects, one of which dominated the WHL last season and has 1st line potential, for a 2nd line winger with off-ice problems + a crappy former 4th rounder struggling to make the NHL + 2nd. LMFAO!!! Seriously, wake up and get with the real world if you think that's even remotely fair. That package is worth Eichel, not the crappy pieces you don't want. How about:
Sam Reinhart + Alexander Nylander + Casey Mittelstadt <-----> Corey Perry + Nick Kerdiles + 2nd
Sounds fair? No, I didn't think so.
Kane will remain in BUF because he's a problem player and no one wants him. The only asset of interest in BUF that has that would get you your much need upgrade on D is Reinhart. Eichel isn't available for obvious reasons. ROR and Okposo are core players. Moving that kind of money may also be a problem for some teams. Moving Risto doesn't solve the problem either. No one wants Ennis, he's a bad player that causes more goals than he scorers. No one wants the rest of the crap players on your team.
