Offering Berniers and a 1st isn't going to get Eichel. We are getting fleeced.

this years #1 and next years #1 and a 1b goalie - perhaps if we want the other Dman we are fighting about back and 2 lower draft picks - I think it does.

Oh Eklund:


Kraken Willing to Part with #2 pick For Eichel. Also, Next Year's #1 +?
I am hearing Seattle has had discussions with Buffalo about Eichel. They are willing to give the #2 pick to get this done. Not enough though. The Question is what else do the Kraken have? If Seattle were to offer up THIS year's first-round pick and NEXT year's first-round pick, along with Goalie Vitek Vanecek for Eichel, should the Sabres take the deal? Should Seattle make that offer?

One of the beat reporters says Islanders could be that surprise team.

I would believe it, they seem to be very active and you hear their name in a lot of rumors out there

Adams vs. Lou…. That could be a blood letting…

Is a good sign

Funny this came out and then Dreger came out and said Eichel is skating and training hard for next year.

Eichel overplayed his hand with the "injury"

If Eichel is traded I am hoping for Rossi, Boldy, Dumba and 1st

I love Rossi's game and I think Boldy will be a top 6. Would take Fiala in replace of Boldy


We need a center coming back in the trade. Rossi or no dice.

Thinking back to DeAngelo...didn't he give Okposo one of his concussions with a right to the mush?

The issue is sure we will be good in 3-4 years with all the draft picks but we will be losing for another 3-4 years. What will be left here with 15 years of losing?

No… it’s simple. You don’t trade him. He plays and you trade him next offseason.

If truly over played, Adams tells Jack he boned himself and he won’t be dealt.

Get healthy, get ready to play and rip up the league. Then I’ll trade you.

You all realize how bad the Sabres actually are right? If Seattle gives you 2 and next years 1 plus a decent goalie...you take that and run to the nhl office shack and turn that in...zero chance we make the playoffs this year, well .0001 percent chance.
Sabres gotta go young and just try to get through this upcoming season.

Well I don't think we need to be, but a lot of people think we will be horrible again next year, and can't see Seattle being much better, two high draft picks next year would help and say Dunn is included he is only 23 or 24 so he meets the time line and Vanecek would be a perfect 1B with starting potential. It's not the greatest deal but it's definitely not the worst I have seen out there.

So you're more interested in 17 and 18 year old prospects than 19, 20, 21 year old pro players?

Technically, yes, Eichel can come back, but that's not the distraction that anyone wants. Not one single time has Jack, the team or his agent ever confirmed not only Jack's interest in returning, but the team interested in building around him.

Objectively, it is a foregone conclusion that he won't return. If he's in the blue and gold come October, something went seriously wrong.
