By accruing cap space in the first half of the season. On a team as strong as Vegas, it's inviting abuse.

If Eichel returns closer to the TDL, suddenly things fit together a lot easier.

I suspect that as the season wears on his value might rise, especially if his health clears up and his cap number goes down. I like that Vegas keeps being mentioned - if I am the Kings there is no way I let Vegas get him (especially with their stash of prospects). I think if either team gets him they are right up there with Colorado.

Dangerous game. There may not be many teams able to take on that deal during the season. It's a lot easier if you can start planning for that now.

Great point.

A $10M cap hit allows for a lot of flexibility regarding going over the cap.

I'd love to negotiate with you Mike.

Only helps tank4 to trade eichel after the season or at the deadline.

I recently learned more about the 1031 eichel trade deadline exchange. Money coming in needs to be similiar to money going out ☝️

Those are three excellent pieces. Can't see getting much more other than a mid-round pick or middling prospect

I watched a few minutes.

its unwatchable.

Terrible production quality.

I assume the Peguals didn't want to spend money on that.
