From what I saw he played very dis-interested for some reason. Give me Patrick Sharp from two years ago and I'd be down.

Up it to 2011 and I'm all for it.

Ivan Provorov is being compared to the Russian OEL. Now that's a guy we need to move up for.

Agreed. I think there's a better chance they find that player in next years draft than what's available right now.
- Sabresfan-365

Yep, and this is kind of how I feel. I'd rather draft, or try to draft that guy first.

Also, who knows, maybe someone in the pipeline already exceeds expectations and becomes that guy.

I just want to let nature take its course with this rebuild. Get some vets, insulate Reinhart/Eichel,Risto and see where we stand after this next season. If someone falls into their lap and they are able to make a deal, then sure.

Eichel plays with Vessey and Lewis on line 3. Is Malkin really on L3?

High end winger probably gets to the NHL quicker (especially with our centre depth) as well.

If they're going to overpay, I hope it's for a top pairing D-man.

I don't think so but that's who they've matched him up against. Won the draw against him, led to the goal.


Edit: according to a quick twitter search that's their "1st line"

I really like what I see from Eichel. I can't imagine him not being able to keep up in Buffalo.

Do you think he's watching the tournament? I've always wondered if the guys that aren't participating pay attention to it.

Are you not home? I think it's on NBC Sports. I'm currently using the Live Extra app to "watch" it. (really I'm just listening since I'm attempting to get some work done)

You can also watch it on the NBC Live Extra App if you have a valid Time Warner or Verizon Fios login.

The whole season basically revolved around him and McDavid. Gotta think he's at least curious. I figure Oilers players would be doing the same.

Definitely would rather have Provorov and his elite offensive acumen. If we sit on the pick, I'd take Jeremy Roy.

We need this kind of player so badly in the organization.

- TheSabresTaco

That's what I'm saying. We need to get that powerplay qb, which we haven't had since Campbell.

At home, but in my office, so wanted to watch this on my 2nd computer.

Eichel physically looks good. Got a bit lost a couple times but it's a bigger surface, etc. Goes to the net like a boss, too.

He is definitely good at using his size. Protects the puck pretty well. Doesn't shy away from physical contact. He'll need some time to adjust to the speed of the game at the beginning of the year, but he's got all the tools he needs already to play in the NHL.
