Sujet: Eichel Blockbuster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafs_and_Sens_Fan</b></div><div>I can think of more than better RHD using just 3 teams...

NYR: DeAngelo, Fox

St. Louis: Pietrangelo, Parayko

SJS: Burns, Karlsson

CBJ: Jones

Avs: Makar

Florida: Ekblad

Pittsburgh: Letang

Nashville: Ellis

Montreal: Weber</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>I think Makar, Letang, Weber, Jones, Pietrangelo and depending on what Karlsson/Burns you're getting... them too.

McAvoy is in that tier below with guys like Ellis, Fox, Payako, etc... Again, hes an excellent D at 22 years, but bruins fans are already overrating him</div></div>

Wow first off bad list. Ellis, letang, and parayko are simply worse, Weber is worse, and a bunch of the others are worse
Secondly, I’m not a bruins fan. So bad look for you two.
Thirdly: look at all of the “top 5 from each position” from like 3 weeks ago, it’s a bunch of NONbruins fans saying mcavoy is in the top 5

Come on guys, don’t underestimate the guy just cuz he’s on the bruins. That’s the biggest issue in hockey is people’s inherent hate for the bruins or the sabres or whatever lol

Sujet: Hall X Eichel For fun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>No problem! And the more I think about it, the more likely the market will be supremely affected by COVID-19. FA's this offseason might take short-term, lower value deals in place of long-term while they wait for the market to rebound. The salary cap staying put might also cause teams to shy away from big contracts until everyone's certain that revenue is stabilized.

Basically what I'm saying is you might be completely right on Hall and Krug. I'm really interested now in how this offseason will look in terms of contracts/offer sheets/etc.

As for Buffalo fans, I can see where they're coming from. If I had a franchise player and someone offers me less than what I deem fair (whether it truly is fair or not), I'd probably get defensive too.</div></div>

Absolutely. Believe me, I saw a bunch that we offering like Mcavoy and Pasta for him (which obviously the bruins would never do), then are are some that are like Moore, Ritchie, Stud and a 1st which obviously the Sabres wouldn’t do.
But then I saw <a href="/users/Silkysmooth42" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Silkysmooth42</a> s and it was actually very even going both ways. Sends enough solid players the sabres way, but doesn’t just Murder the bruins depth / prospect pool. So I added even a little more going the sabres way, and these fans are still just being rude.
But whatever

Sujet: Hall X Eichel For fun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MatthewsDynasty </b></div><div>I don't think hall would sign that low even though they would easily make it to the conference finals every year.
hall could just sign with COL and get paid more

But overall not to bad</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ngikas</b></div><div>Depleting the depth of the Bruins would be the wrong decision. I know its for fun but I wouldn't like this Bruins lineup. The star power upfront is unreal but I think this team struggles to win a cup.</div></div>

I appreciate the kindness and suggestions, unfortunately some guys here were too dumb to do either lol

For the hall thing, I have argued both sides. Again I only did it here for the fun of it

For the bruins, I agree. Trading for Eichel makes no sense, they have Bergy, krejci and Coyle rn, and their future is Stud, Coyle, Beecher, and anyone else they get. Again it was just for the fun of it, so IFFFFF they were to trade for himc that is the absolute max they would give up

Sujet: Hall X Eichel For fun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>It's a novel idea and I applaud how much thought you put into it, but I don't this will happen for a few reasons:

1.) Hall is a former Hart winner, so no matter how much he struggled this year, people are still going to pay him. It would be an awfully big risk to take to sign a 7 x 1 deal in hopes of a 100 point season. Injuries and lack of chemistry are potential drawbacks that could cause his value to drop again. Signing a 9 X 7 or whatever a team thinks he's worth this offseason is a much safer bet for him.

2.) I doubt Krug will sign for $7 Mil. If Jacob Trouba signs for $8 Mil I would think that his camp would use that at a minimum. I could be wrong, though. Maybe he takes a team-friendly discount? He'll probably sign after Pietrangelo so it will be interesting to see where his AAV comes in first.

3.) No way Buffalo does that trade. As I've found out through my feeble attempts to "trade for Eichel." You're going to need to do a lot better than that. Buffalo needs at least one elite center prospect. Jost has potential but I think his lack of production worries some teams as to how high his ceiling actually is.

Once again, I enjoyed hearing your thoughts on this! I also enjoyed the ending "That's business baby!"</div></div>

Excellent and well thought out comment! Thank you for being kind, doing research, and giving ideas. (Again only a select few do)

1) this has been an issue I have been on both sides of. It’s risky, but it could also pay off with a 100 Oy season with Eichel and a 7 x 11 deal next year. Who knows, again just for fun

2) krugs discount was looking to be 6.5-7 so I went 7 for the hell of it. Obviously nobody really knows but I’m just guessing too

3) again buffalo guys will always overvalue him, unfortunately when a guy says he doesn’t like playing somewhere, that kills the value a bit. It likely doesn’t happen like I said, but IFFFF the bruins were to do it, this is it. No more or it wouldn’t be worth it for the bruins

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MMBzFan</b></div><div>This is the most creative Eichel trade scenario i’ve seen. Bravo - no sarcasm.

Replace Ritchie with Vaakanainen and its a start. Its a great package.

Vaakanainen and Studnicka are really as “elite prospect” as Boston can go.</div></div>

Thank you for being kind, doing research, and giving a suggestion (something that only guys like <a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@McGruff</a> <a href="/users/Silkysmooth42" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Silkysmooth42</a> and <a href="/users/Jesus" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Jesus</a> are capable of doing apparently)

In saying that, it would seem that with Stud, debrusk, and Jost, giving up Urho also would be too much for it to be reasonable for the bruins to do.
This is the highest the bruins would go if it were to happen
