Quoting: DONTGIVEAPUCK13
Then so does the thought of Rangers fans getting Eichel
I love sabres fans like this. Don’t realize that they are gearing up for a ROR type trade. Not as bad but nowhere near eichel at full value. And you are right, rangers should add both laf kakko AND a first, when zegras, byfield, turcotte, drysdale, 3rd overall, Rossi, boldy, are ALL off the table by their teams (I’m rolling my eyes here btw if you don’t get sarcasm). Buffalo will eventually have to accept the best offer for eichel since he will not play another game with them. They don’t want that distraction in the locker room, and I doubt he agrees until surgery is performed. The longer they wait, the more of the season he will miss with surgery. At best it’s a 3 month recovery so even now he misses some time. This will lower his value even more.
Now that being said he should get some good prospects still, but you are looking at a Chytil/kravtsov, a Lundkvist, and a Jones/Robertson, georgiev and a 1st. There is still no team that would be willing to beat that as almost all have pulled out.
