If they are trading Eichel Reinhart and Risto and Olo.

Geting just solid guys is not good enough.

Solid to me is 2-3 line players.

A team full of Asplunds and Thompsons.

This draft scares the crap out of me. The last time a draft was chalk full of D-men at the top was 2012. and that draft was really bad.

This draft also looks identical to the 2014 draft, which has turned out to be a pretty strong class in hindsight.

The problem is, we are not going to get what we think we will in any Eichel trade.

Eichel for all three 2021 first round picks they currently own, Texier, Foudy. They're pretty high on Texier and Foudy down here but they seem to be willing to go all-in on Eichel.

I just think the best possible return is coming from Columbus at this point and I've actually been saying it all year.

You don't put all your eggs in one basket my friend.

Eichel and Reinhart in the same deal doesn't work unless were getting at top prospect which they don't have. Texier and Foudy are underwhelming.

point taken...although if you look at them you'll see what looks like onions in there and that usually denotes meatballs...

There's always kool-aid in Sabreland, and we've all had some over the years.

I usually pan sear my meatballs like this. I put a lot of cheese in there and I like the crisp on top. They flatten out a bit.

Sunday sauce I don't, but for a standard night of jarred sauce and linguine, pan sear is my fave

I don't agree with the idea of going after the fifth and two late firsts, and adding on a middle six and maybe a top six prospect. Much rather get more players than picks. If you're trading jack, you can't be acquiring three question marks. Get the 3, get Zegras, get a third asset, see if you have to send something else back. But you need a high, almost guaranteed, impact return. Or you are absolutely (frank)ed.
