With the amount of fear that teams have acquiring Eichel because of his injury I think his value is pretty rock bottom. None of these trades would happen now, tho in the summer they definitely would've been more likely.

Krebs, Dean and Tuch? No thanks.

The only way a trade works is if Eichel gets the surgery putting himself in noncompliance allowing the team to nullify the contract so he doesn't end up on their LTIR. His problem is he wants to get the surgery and have the team take all the risk. No team is going to do that because it's not just about the money, it's having 10 million on LTIR the insurance won't cover. The Leafs, Montreal and NY could shoulder the money on the contract but they aren't going to be willing to tie up the cap space they otherwise would have as free cap space.

WSH counters with Mantha, Kempny, Schultz, and their 2023 2nd.

Id do the vegas one.

Pressure isn’t Benn and Segs’ issue. Getting the puck in the back of the net is. Only thing the Stars need to change right now is the head coach. Then see what they’ve got. Cap gymnastics would still be required to extend JRob and Guri and eventually Hintz
