Ducks aren’t moving Zegras.

Auto reply to Sabres/Ducks Eichel trades: "GMBM has stated that Zegras and Drysdale are untouchable."

Buffalo won’t get Zegras lol

Paying Reimer more than Ullmark? 3 years for Reimer with UPL a half season away from being NHL ready nand Ullmarks backup?

If GMKA sends Eichel to Ducks without getting Zegras or Dysdale back, I will become a Kraken fan. I dont believe Zegras or Dyrsdale are untouchable, especially with Eichel being the prize.

Devs aren’t trading Clarke for Risto

David Pagnotta : "The Ducks have made it clear they have no interest in moving top prospects Trevor Zegras and Jamie Drysdale, though other young highly touted players could be available, including Isac Lundestrom, Sam Steel, Jacob Perreault and Brayden Tracey"

From an article talking about Ducks trade options this off-season (specifically mentions Eichel)

Like it or not Sabres arent getting either of them

There are most likely 8-10 legit contenders for Eichel. If the Ducks wont give up either, then GMKA wont do a trade with them. There are not a lack of options for the Sabres here. Columbus, LA, Minnesota and Philly can put together better offers. The only way this Ducks/Sabres speculation is heatinf up is that the Ducks are willing to move either Drysdale or Zegras, or they are willing to send 3 or 4 1st/2nd Rd picks.

Ah yes I forgot you have inside knowledge of how many teams are "Legit" contenders, and that you also know what each of them are offering, my bad

Okay then we're not moving Eichel to the Ducks. Thanks but next.

Eichel is a top ten player in the NHL when healthy. He said that they weren't available for PLD who is nowhere near Eichel. Like it or not, you're going to have to give up A LOT! to get Eichel

LOL. Multiple sources say they're in on Risto. Clarke is not a top prospect. This isn't much for him. I know all the amateur GMs on here hate him but he will fetch a similar return

No. David Pagnotta said exactly what I sent in quotes. Friedman said he has no idea if they are on the table or not. Pagnotta said it is clear they are off the table, even in an Eichel trade.

Like it or not you are going to be disappointed in whatever return they get for Eichel.

I am aware of Eichels "value" and how good he is. That doesnt change Zegras and Drysdale being off the table

Yes, they do have interest. That doesnt mean they're going to overpay. Stop being delusional. Risto with 1 year left, and over 5.4M AVV isnt worth more than a 3rd round pick, and even then thats too much. Sabres are likely going to hold onto him and not move him, for like the 4th straight offseason, because nobody is going to give up anything of value for him. Theres a reason they've tried moving him for years and havent been able to, and now hes just a rental.

This morning on WGR550 They had Friedman on the phone and he said they weren't available for PLD. PLD isn't in the same stratosphere as Eichel. If Sabres trade with Ducks they're getting Zegras back. You're probably right, the return probably won't be what I want, but if you want Eichel bad enough, you'll have to fork up a top 2 prospect. We don't want Drysadle and Zegras is a fair trade back.

Fine by me. Thanks but next

You'll see pal. You're the delusional one.

Ducks are in the middle of the Eichel race. So go ahead and believe a rumor guy, or realize the Ducks must give up a top 2 prospect to get a top ten player.

Lol okay. I'll check back in at the start of next season when Risto is still on the Sabres because nobody wanted to give up anything of value for him. AGAIN.

Great for Friedman, great for PLD and great for Eichel. Pagnotta flat out said it is clear they are off the table in any deal this offseason, We dont want Eichel that bad, thats the whole point.

The Ducks do not want Eichel bad enough to give up either.

I'm not saying Eichel isnt worth a top prospect, Im saying the Ducks arent giving up theirs to get him, If that means they dont get him then so be it

I don’t think that he has the value that you think he has, especially not to an analytics heavy team. Even though they may be in on Risto, it doesn’t mean that they are willing to give up Clarke and a 3rd for him. I’d bet more on Clarke’s potential than I would on Ristolainen not getting caved on a nightly basis.

I’d rather keep my top prospect thank you next

Good thing you have ZERO say

Rumor guys are often used by teams or agents as public negotiating tactics. Ducks trying to make a stand and Sabres likely will counter by leaking that multiple team are prepared to offer top prospects. Until the ink is dry on a trade, I'm not believing anyone isn't available for a 24 year old top ten player

No offence intended to a lot of Sabres fans out there, but guys like you are going to be hilariously disappointed.

I absolutely don’t disagree that Eichel is one of the top 20 or so players in the league, but Buffalo has managed themselves into a corner, especially with the injury. I’d recommend you set your sights low so that you don’t have the inevitable reaction that your dumpster fire of an organizations is continuously creating.
