You dont get better by trading you best player

Yea no Eichel is getting traded there is no denying it. He doesn't like it in Buffalo. Also that is no where near enough to dump Okposo

Detroit doesnt need a rd , not for a 2nd either.

You won’t get better this year but long term you might. Between prospects and picks, you should rebuild fast. A few decent adds in FA and you could be competing

Grubauer the same $ as Old Man Martinez and only 50,000 more than Zach 'sidecar to elites' Hyman how are more people not bothered by stuff like this

He has a .920 career sv% 😵

He's an elite goalie there's no two ways about it

I mean...
using LA as an example, let’s say you got something along the lines of Turcotte, Kupari, ****emo and a 2021 first.

That’s brings in 4 serviceable future players. 3 of which would have a very good chance at a top 6 future.

Now obviously it’s Jack Eichel, he’s pretty good at hockey to say the least. But the likes of Turcotte + Kupari + someone like McTavish, Sillinger or Lucius is not bad whatsoever. As well as Buffalo’s own top pick.

Don’t attack me on the exact value of this trade either, it’s just an example.
