Big time. They're on the hook for a lot of cash for a long time now.

EDIT: forgot they could keep him on LTIR forever. Thanks Hank.

Friedman on @WGR550 today talks about the #Ducks as the one team he believes has really circled back in on Eichel. As I said Tuesday on the same show, the one team that was flirting with that possibility was in fact the Ducks as they sit on the clock with the #3 pick

I can’t imagine anybody would trade for Eichel without the medical records. My guess is he starts the season with Buffalo, proves he’s healthy band then can be traded

Who knows if reinhart or Risto are traded? If so I would think it would have to be done before the draft on Friday.

Could be a whole lot of nothing going on with the Sabres in the next day and a half. Maybe they prefer to trade the 3 for high 2022 picks which is considered a much better class.

I would like to see Reinhart traded now for a prospect and high enough pick to get Eklund.

I would like to see Risto traded for something that makes me okay about losing Borgen

Jack I’m realistic about and don’t think he’s traded now at his all time lowest worth

Of course if his last mri shows no damages
A team doctor could sign off on trade pretty quick

Adams has a sound crew around him this time though. Should be different this time around.

On a serious note the last thing I heard from someone I trust is that Calgary and Buff were talking multiple times and that was pre trade deadline. Definitely much isn’t getting out. It’s not a coincidence that we were one of the last teams to leak about Seattle’s pick of Borgen.
- IceColdBeer


When I talked to my guy a month or so ago, he also told me to watch Calgary. Definitely looking for verification.

Of course, but you got to see that first. Why hold out on medical's if he was getting better, you would be able to suck even more blood from another team.

Zegras and a 3rd do it for me. The extra prospect is exactly that.......extra... unneeded if your getting Zegras and Eklund at 3 lets say. Plus Henrique is servicable for a few years. (if thats the cap dump)

That is not enough for Jack Eichel. Zegras isnt your Lafrienere or byfield type prospect level.

eichel is worth more

I agree! Especially if we're having to take a cap dump to boot.

I would take what Friedman says with a grain of salt. He says " I think" aka putting in his opinion with no real facts.

Because that's what has been coming out, even Friedman said it today. The only teams I thought saw them were Minnesota and Anaheim. But even Friedman said this morning he wasn't sure if Minnesota has seen them.

This is kinda fun.

I would take Davis over Oliver but maybe Davis doesn't count because he's on an "ELC"
