Still waiting for that Eichel bidding war to erupt

ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Forum: Armchair-GM31 minutes ago

Thread: Leafs - Ducks

Ducks pass because hoping that Marner's skill set translates from Toronto to Anaheim unchanged is just delusional, even alongside Trevor Zegras.

Maple Leafs pass because they can get Lindholm (plus) without having to lose Marner.

Right now, I can't see us offering anything less for Marner in good faith than two of our three UFAs, Sam Steel and our top-5-protected 2022 first, and even then, Toronto would probably say No.

Thread: Sanheim Trade

If we're trading our 2022 first for a veteran LD, it probably won't be for a guy with only two years' term. My understanding of Rob Blake's comments is that we're looking for a guy 25 or under with at least four years left on his contract. And with Anderson, Bjornfot and Clague already in the system, I'm not convinced that we don't need another goal-scoring-forward prospect like Fa-gem-o, Kaliyev or Tkachev.

Thread: Oilers pt2

Replace Duncan Keith with Evan Bouchard and the 2023 third with Puljujarvi or Yamamoto and the Coyotes might consider that.

Why would Anaheim want another bottom-6 forward? That's what 3/4 of our forward roster is now.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>Amazing that 3 months of cody eakin, which is a couple hundred grand is a sticking point as we take back 12 million in henrique and none of your most valuable assets at all. Not even comtois, not even Terry.

Bizzare</div></div>

No less bizarre than you insisting on having him in there. How do you picture these negotiations starting? Adams asking Murray what he wants for Eichel and Eakin together, and then Murray offering that package? Murray offering that package for Eichel, and then Adams saying you have to take Eakin too?

Thread: Is this a reasonable Eichel price

Even as an avowed and vocal anti-Eichel-trader, I think that this is an inadequate return. To summarize what <a href="/users/F50marco" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@F50marco</a> and <a href="/users/littlejerryseinfeld" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@littlejerryseinfeld</a> have said or implied previously, I think that there have to be conditional 2023 and 2024 firsts involved, depending upon the number of games (and/or number of points) Eichel gets in those seasons. I don't think that having this season factor into any conditions is realistic.

Thread: sabres after olympics

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>It's eakin retained 50% for like 3 months as a replacement for henrique. Seems like an odd sticking point</div></div>

We're not a charity. No team is going to pay for someone else's unwanted player without getting a benefit. That package is probably more than Eichel is going to realize in real life, so if we have to take Eakin off your hands, we can leave Perreault out of the deal. The way negotiations go, we're not going to ask for him, and if you tell us at the outset that he's a necessary inclusion in the deal, then we're not going to offer all four of those future assets.

Thread: sabres after olympics

Take out Eakin and that's a deal I could live with. (I'd make the conditions on the 2023 pick a little different, but we don't need to get into that "how-many-angels-on-the-head-of-a-pin" discussion.). Plus, you haven't reached the cap floor without him.

Thread: Quack

. . . and you get to keep Eichel.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat at 10:12 am

Thread: Rebuilt Preds

Take out the Arizona first and add Nashville's first. That's the only scenario in which the Coyotes make that trade.

We paid a second (a high second -- #40) and a third for Arvidsson. Even assuming that we'd trade him back to you, which we wouldn't, why would we take a loss on the exchange?

Forum: Armchair-GMSat at 9:09 am

Thread: Lets Go

We can't trade Trevor Moore. He's from Thousand Oaks. It's why we got him in the first place.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri at 10:14 pm

Thread: Stars Fans whats the asking price

Note that you have only $10.5 million in cap space, with Jordan Greenway, Kappo Kahkonen and Kevin Fiala to sign, plus 7 (SEVEN!) more roster slots to fill. As the ever-accurate <a href="/users/wabit" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@wabit</a> says, Lindell is a luxury the Wild can't afford.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri at 6:29 pm

Thread: Omaha

Anaheim wouldn't trade Comtois for Monahan (incl retention) even up, let alone add A prospect Jacob Perreault.

Thread: Experimenting a Marner Trade

I think Los Angeles is content to wait for the off-season and make Rielly an offer if they think he's worth the price.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LGuy54</b></div><div>Has he been any good?? I could consider making that re-signing</div></div>

In both pre-season games and the opener, he has been both noticeable and effective.

I'm hoping Tkachev stays in North America, and re-signs here.
