2) Kaliyev

3) 1st with conditions

4) ?

Cap work-
Quick ($5.8) - cap dump? Can they dump him?

Second dump?

It does become a cluster frank to figure out…

Sabres willing to add conditions in any deal for Eichel.
- SABRES 89


Have not read past here yet, but conditions should only be if he retires or misses more than 1.5 consecutive years before end of current contract. And it would have to be a protected first going back.

For each of the next 5 seasons Eichel is on the Vegas roster, if Vegas makes the conference finals, they send the Sabres a 3rd round pick. If they make the cup finals, it's a 2nd round pick. If they win the cup, it's a 1st round pick.

Cryptic, I don’t know if it’s Buffalo related. Or about NRD himself as he mentioned he had a podcast possibly coming.

Someone smarter then me can decipher this code I’m all for it.

So they give us like a single prospect and the above?

They are not giving tons and the above. The above is almost like Eichel for nothing but those conditions.

I would pass and move to another deal / condition.

There is unrest in the forest
Trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas
The trouble with the maples
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade
There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream, "Oppression"
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
They say, "The oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light"
Now there's no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw

2 reasons he's not with the Knights yet

1 Cap
2 They do not want to move Krebs


The Knights have bit off more then they can chew with all these big contracts and going after bigger players after they have traded or signed big players, they have a bad reputation for that, they want to " throw" away a player for a new player.


trading Eichel there would be very difficult.

So the Golden Knights won’t trade for an elite center they desperately need because people will think they don’t care enough about people’s feelings towards them trying to win?

I didn't say that, they couldn't wait to get Pacioretty and a couple others but when a new toy becomes available they can't wait to throw away the old toy for the new toy, no loyalty.

They won't part with Krebs as the Ducks won't part with Zegras and or Drysdale.

Yes unfortunately, but that could change for Vegas very quickly, there ownership is putting the pressure on Kelly and Dreger's story might be the finishing push.
