Actually I don't the Sabres won't get anymore from any team if the goal is get minimal cap back for Eichel. In effect three first rounders.
The Kings aren't ready for serious contention this year. So they keep those young assets. Next season Vilardi on the team, maybe Brandt then the Kings have a whole lotta cap space without Eichel to sign a very good UFA.
That's the Sabres competition in any trade for Eichel. Teams are thinking, I'm not giving up anything good young prospects who make minimal salary, when I can keep those players and then use that cap space by not having Eichel for other players.
