So we moved on From LA, moved on From NYR.
Whos left.

People need to temper expectation for Eichel trade.

You are going to be very underwhelmed thinking they are getting 2-3 Top prospects.

Turcotte would be a brutal “main piece” though.

He looks like a 2nd/3rd line tweener so far

- sbroads24

i think they'll be able to get four pieces for jack...imo, a 1st and another pick (2nd/3rd) are givens...question is, what are the other two...

w/o byfield and ?, would turcotte and kempe work?

Tough, after that presser probably not. I'd resign him long term if it wasn't an astronomical number. But he went full Eeyore mode in that presser, can't have that with a C on the front of it.

The team has total control. We can shape the return any way we like. I don't think the Sabres are interested in picks while dealing high end assets. I believe they're looking for young roster guys (Bjork) and high end prospects, at the very least. If it's not a top 5 first, don't bother. Get guys like Turcotte, Valiardi, Valimaki, Zegras, Drysdale, Kakko and Chytil. If not, (frank) off.

IMO you need whatever teams best prospect. Period. If they aren’t willing, too bad so sad.

They need, whether it’s a high end prospect or young roster player, someone who’s potentially a high end scorer.

The secondary pieces can be guys like Turcotte and a 1st.

One thing Granato said that made me fuzzy was how he basically said how they hate pressers and were mad about the season (they should be) and that they're completely different people when they're in the room and on the ice. I want to believe that they're dealing with the raw emotions of a bad season and that over the course of the summer, guys like Sam and Jack won't actually ask to be traded. Jack's sticking point is clearly his surgery because he wants to get on the ice as soon as possible. And be healthy for the rest of his life. I imagine he's frustrated with the waiting process that he agreed to.
