I suppose your flipping him to the Islanders then?

no from BUF

2.25.2020 : 7:00pm EST : The fight for Eichel's future.

Eichel is not being traded and he won't ask for a trade. Also he is worth way more than that, don't disrespect him with that offer. You wouldn't trade Zibanejad for Montour, Johansson, Cozens and late 1st and a 3rd would you? Eichel is a much better player than ZIbanejad. (cue angry NYR fans saying otherwise)

Montour, Cozens, and a 1st is actually a pretty good deal for Zibanejad. Value for Eichel here is definitely too low tho for sure. Offer would have to start with Kaako/Shesterkin+.

I was nodding my head agreeing with his post and realized, hey, thats a pretty solid package you have going to the rangers.

I don't think any NYR fan would say that Z is better than Eichel. Definitely not. Zibanejad is elite 1c. Eichel is superstar 1c.

Now, in regards to the trade value, I think you're undervaluing Deangelo, personally. I think converting the 3rd to a 1st makes sense, but beyond that, it would be an overpay to acquire him (which is what it would probably take, admittedly).

And I'll finally concede: Strome needs to be replaced in the trade with Chytil.

And I don't keep up with the Sabres at all, but I thought I had heard Eichel wasn't totally happy...and with them doing silly things like trading for Simmonds, it at least has me thinking: What is the direction of this team? And if I'm thinking it, is Eichel not?

I would expect it starts with Barzal, Dobson, and probably 1 of Holmstrom or Wahlstrom

There's so much in this so I'm gonna only address the Deangelo thing. He has very little value to Buffalo as rhd is their strongest position.

Don’t know but I doubt they could afford him after giving JGP that new contract

Kaako + kravtsov + chytil + a 1st.

Eichel, Hutton and a 1st for Zibanejad, Georgiev and Kakko?

Sabres no trade list: Eichel, Dahlin, Cozens, Skinner, Jokiharju, Reinhart (maybe), Olofsson(Maybe) and Luukkonen

So is elite better than superstar?

I thought I was fairly clear with what I said. Emphasis on "Definitely not." Zibanejad is not better than Eichel. Therefore: Superstar is better than Elite.

NHL no win list: sabres, Panthers, Coyotes, oilers, senators

Ok I was just asking no need to get up set. Thanks for the clarification.

Wasn't upset, just was more curious in what way you were able to conclude that from what I said, that's all. Difficult to infer emotion in text, I understand. No problem.

Looking at it now I miss read it.
