Thread: All Aboard the Eichel Cycle - Year End Team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Well it would just be constructed as a 3-way trade to begin with. And with Brisson running the show now that is very possible (he made the Duchene trade happen).

As I actually said in a post to someone else like 5 minutes ago I think my original package may even be on the high side now (at least in terms of guaranteed assets) since its been nearly 4 months since i proposed that package. Imo it would be more likely to include Gudbranson instead of Dube and make it 2 conditional 1sts.

The trade wont happen before tonight's game anyways so we'll get to see how Monahan does and maybe get a better idea on his value (how back to normal is he)</div></div>

I would be fine with that, one for sure first one conditional. At the same time, I know everyone thinks the time spent drops the value. Perceived for sure, but at this point, it’s very apparent Adam’s won’t drop the value too much. In what will actually happen, it’s gonna be wild to see which fan base thinks it’s too little/too much

Thread: Helping out Buffalo and New York
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DiehardRedWingsFan58</b></div><div>:laugh :laugh Why in the hell would Detroit ever consider this? First off neither Trouba or Zibanejad are waiving their NMC for that dumpster fire of a team the Buffalo Sabres. And Detroit sure as hell isn't eating 50% on Eichel and Trouba long term for basically Lafreniere and tons of 1st round picks. And why in the hell would Detroit want Eakin and Okposo. Detroit's giving up way too many pieces for essentially Lafreniere and 1st round picks no freaking way Yzerman would ever do this. Detroit declines and Zibanejad and Trouba :laugh and wont waive for that dumpster fire team in Buffalo.</div></div>

Det would be stupid not to do this, you kidding? 4 first rounders (3 of buffalos, so top 10, prolly top 5) and Laf for cap space. Yeah, it’s a lot, but they’re rebuilding and by the time they gotta pay anyone, those dollars will be gone. I hope your kidding, they get Laf and 4 first for: 5x5 of Eichel, 4x5 of Trouba, and KO and Eakin are short so who cares. Any player that Det is giving up can easily be replaced with draft picks that aren’t those firsts (I’m sure there are a couple that are intriguing, but no headliners)

Thread: Trying to salvage a dumpster fire
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CheechYou</b></div><div>Tbf, the problem with Eichel is his health uncertainty. If BG shells out assets for<strong> a guy who might never play again,</strong> then you've essentially lit fire on your franchise by losing all the assets you gave up and being stuck with 10mil for 5 more seasons. That hurts financially even if you can stick him on LTIR for cap relief purposes.

A better idea IMO for MINN would be to offer-sheet Elias Pettersson.</div></div>

Eichel’s injury isn’t close to career threatening. The hold up is which type of surgery. So unless the Dr slips and cuts his spin, he’ll be just fine. There was a chance the issue could have fixed itself with relaxation. Trying to keep hyperbole to the minimum here.

Thread: Reuniting Eichel and Reinhart
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>faulkmydzingel</b></div><div>I don't know. This Lundell kid looks incredible so far. Tippet looks like he may pan out and would be a stud pairing with Dahlin. I know nothing about Benning. An extra 1st in the Bedard draft never hurts. But then of course the Bob contract. If you somehow managed to convince him to waive, would retaining 1.5 Mil get the job done?</div></div>

The way I’m looking at it, the first and Tippett are for taking Bob. Tippett could still put it together, and he’s a nice piece, but nothing to write about yet. Lundell indeed looks good, but it’s Eichel we’re talking about here. Benning is a nonfactor. Bobs contract is only gonna look worse when he’s placed on the bench for knight. As for the first, with Eichel, Hubs, Reinhart, Ekblad, and Barkov, there’s zero chance that team misses the playoffs. That first is in the 20s in 23, not reaching the NHL til 25 at the earliest if ever
