Thread: Sharks Chomp Chomp
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>asauer1122</b></div><div>Eichels trade value isnt at eklund alone???? This may be the actual stupidest response i have seen on here and ive seen some bad ones.</div></div>

Think it’s more deep than that.

Like Eichels value is obviously multiple high quality assets - but currently I would not move Eklund for Eichel.

Not because Eichel;

A) isn’t worth it (he is)
B) Eklunds better (he isnt)
C) Eklund is more valuable (not really)

The rationale I think (at least from my own opinion) : is that Eichels injury is way to risky and gone too far. Buffalo has poorly handled the situation and Eichel and the Sabres haven’t done anything to better Jacks health.

Jack wants a “never before seen” surgery (in pro hockey) and the Sabres want fusion (not very appealing as well). I’m on Jacks side kinda but he could honestly get worse or not play this year; or blah blah blah.

I don’t think Eichel isn’t worth a lot. But I don’t think from at least the Sharks perspective it’s worth losing Eklund. With the amount of large contracts we have (which losing Vlasic in this trade is insane I’m disregarding that aspect - the Sabres never do that, even with Eklund or Merkley that’s a terrible offer to both take Eichel and lose vlasic).

Eichel I hope gets traded ASAP so he can start his rehab/ surgery, but not to the Sharks hopefully.

Thread: Sabres Eichel Value on rumored teams
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>I mean, it's kind of weird to come on and say "Unless you are one of those employees", but neglect the fact that the GM of the Ducks has made it abundantly clear that Zegras and Drysdale will not be moved. If that means no Eichel, so be it...at least then we wouldn't have to see the 50 "Zegras or Drysdale to Buffalo" trades every day.

Cheers.</div></div>

Not saying Zegras and Drysdale are available but if you are naive enough to believe everything that a GM says no matter from what team I have some beautiful water front land for sale in Florida. All GM's lie, throw out BS and smoke screens. Myself I'd take Comtois, Perrault and the 3OA.

If they want to include Henrique for cap reasons so be it but try getting him to waive his M-NTC to go from life in California to Buffalo...good luck with that. At this stage in his career he surely doesn't want to go to the worst team in the league just to play.
