The timing couldn't get much worse. Sabres are the desperate side right now. Rosters are set, cap is used, and Eichel still can't play.

So he would be LTIR all season and then could play in playoffs, like Kucherov. Worked well for them. I think that was the plan all along, honestly.

Hold on, what flavor? None of that beef garbo juice. Chicken ok, but I would also want a blue Gatorade thrown in. If we’re talking a five pack of chili, I’ll not only drive him to the airport, I’ll drive him where he gets traded too.

This is unbelievable, what’s the reasoning? Trevor has a fully functional neck, doesn’t he know that legs feed the wolves?

i dont think adams holds out THIS long just to crack. it'll be the ultimate embarrassment. saying, for months, that he wont trade eichel for less than what he deems as fair. if this trade bombs, he loses literally all respect from the entire industry.

When do you crack then? If he doesn't have surgery soon, then even a TDL move is out the window. Can you really wait until next off-season?

Should have given the medicals 4 months ago and gotten the deal done at the draft

It's bizarre that he didn't provide them. I'd love to know if the offers are any better today.

Teams are prolly offering garbage, Adams is probably asking for the moon and the stars without providing medicals, until Eichel’s agents got their own MRI’s and sent them to teams.

Whole thing sounds like a disaster

Breaking news….video leaked of Eichel and Adams discussing their future plans together…would you count out an Eichel return to the Sabres after this evidence?

Hertl has a 3 team trade list clause in his contract.

Why would he accept a trade to Buffalo?

Well yes its the only reason that trade hasn't happened yet, but let's see how much the Vegas owners push McCrimmon now.

Vegas is one franchise center from being able to wipe Tampa out. Imagine being like, no, I can't give you my future 2C for jack eichel. Grow the (frank) up, Kelly.
