If he only wants to go to one team, why would said team give up anything for him regardless of contract, age, skill etc.
- ImThatGuy



Eichel doesn't have a NTC...

He can't make that decision

He also isn't walking at the end of the year like Hall was

It's called asset management

Now for the love of god think for a second because you respond

It doesnt though. You said Buffalo could only get value because Hall would only go to Boston and they knew it.

If Eichel will only go to NYR why would the rangers give up anything of value to get him.

- ImThatGuy


I'll lay this out simply. If traded TODAY, Eichel

DOESN'T. HAVE. THAT. CHOICE.

as he doesn't have a NTC. In fact, he has nothing but his salary for this year and next. So what are you still spouting off based on nothing with no comparable to just yell? You aren't making sense, and if there is a point in there it's missing the mark so hard I don't even think you know where it is.

ok, what was the scoring in the nhl then vs now



please take the time to post where they each stood at the end of the year in rankings


year 1, maruk tied for 62
https://www.hockey-refere...katers.html#stats::points


year 2
maruk 20th

https://www.hockey-refere...katers.html#stats::points



year 3

tied for 30th
https://www.hockey-refere...katers.html#stats::points


year 4
11th

https://www.hockey-refere...katers.html#stats::points


year 5 he was injured


year 6
13th

https://www.hockey-refere...katers.html#stats::points




so during that first 6 years


he was what, 30th in scoring?

You presented all of us a challenge.

I answered your question and beat your challenge.

Maruk was a PPG player. So is Jack.

I can't help you if you can't accept that.

I'm moving on.

Then they will have to wait when his contract is up then
- gerbe75pts

Lol that’s not how it works.

But logic changes because you guys pick and choose when to apply certain logic

Hall would only go to Boston so they had to take less. VS Eichel will only go to NY but they will still get a great return because it’s different.

Got it.

Because the alternative is you tell Jack his "1 team" isn't making a fair offer so he's gonna have to open his list to more teams or he's not going anywhere for 5 years

Once the list opens up, his "1 team" all of a sudden has competition

Yes it does

Now if you want to say Eichel is a pending UFA and will only go to the Rangers then you take the best you can get and move on just like they did with Hall

But if the Rangers are only giving you a 5th you say no and Jack plays out his contract and walks at the end of the year

The Sabres are great at asset management you guys convinced me they will do the right thing.

I love Kevyn Adam’s. Hope they sign him to a massive extension.

They don’t need anybody else.
This team is on the up and up.

This is all a fluke year.
Playoffs next year.

Unless Eichel is on the team, then Probably not he’s bad.

Hall was leaving

Much different than Eichel

They offered Hall a 2 year deal and he wanted a 1 year

Hall and his play really didn't turn into an asset worth a whole lot

The Sabres probably could have gotten a 3rd or 4th for his UFA rights after the season and not added salary to the bottom 6

The trade is bad. Whatever

And the Sabres become an even bigger mess than they already are.

Imagine Another star player requesting to be traded and the team saying no thanks you’ll play out your contract and like it.

Because that will end well.
