Michael Pachla: Of the captaincy--Jack Eichel or Ryan O'Rellly With Gionta unlikely returning as captain (if at all) the choice is now between 20 yr. old Eichel and 26 yr. old O'Reilly

Tim Murray is going to make jack eichel happy and give him everything .. he pretty much told everyone in the press conference that he had a meeting with him and said I will do everything for you

Basically meaning it's your team

ROR earned it back in Colorado.

To give the C to Jack would be a flimsy move. Dudes already been labeled a "whiner" -

No he didnt.

Where is all this ROR is a leader coming from?
Dating back to Colorado days his leadship has been continually called into question.

Bylsma to name Gorges captain. Jack is 3C with Foligno and Ennis on his wings. "let's go, boys, this is hockey the 'right way'".

Antipin or bust! Hopefully Antipin isn't friends with Zadorov, Kulikov or Grigorenko.

I mean all jokes aside, its not hard to see why taking Russians is a bit of a gamble in Buffalo. Just seems like everything has to go right to keep these guys happy. Conditions have to be perfect.

I believe thats a big part of it. Could also be the lifestyle they were used to or expecting, Teammates, Ice time expectations vs what they could get in motherland, a number of things. When things dont go their way they want out and will have willing suitors back home. Not just singling out the Sabres here..

Hey on the bright side, I think Dmitry Kalinin liked it here?
