Thread: Eichel to Anaheim
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>blatnere</b></div><div>Eichel is top 10 player in the league now, top 5 at his best.</div></div>

The only thing Eichel has proven is that he can put up points. His leadership qualities are in question, and he hasn't been able to get this team over the hump and into the playoffs. IMO all these young guys are getting paid way too much, way too early, and not having to prove their worth other than scoring in the regular season. McDavid, Matthews, Marner, Eichel. None of these guys are making a dent in the playoffs. I look at guys like Kopitar, Doughty, Kane, Toews, who all got paid after they proved themselves in the important part of the season. It's the generation, everyone wants to get paid for potential, and mentally, most of them are soft because they've been coddled all the way since youth hockey. (And I know I sound like a crotchety old man.....)
