🤔🤔🤔

The key here is that Adams and Brisson are working collaboratively right now, talking with each other 3-4 times a day according to sources, trying to push this along, the agent from CAA having the permission to talk directly to teams for about 10 days or so and sharing medical information on Eichel to help bring clarity to interested parties. All of which has helped renew interest. And again, the sense is Adams and Brisson are working in tandem in a very positive way.

well it's been 6 months since publicly wanting to be traded so I'd say it's good that the Sabres are letting his agent help.

Drinking a pumpkin spiced umlautte while reading ; and realizing this team is a bunch of BWBs. Watching the 6000ish attendance numbers will be fun. Hearing RJ regale us w stories of all you can eat dinners and getting liquored up will be more depressing than ever. Hockey Heaven! Lawls

in addition:

"Again, at issue here is that Eichel is adamant he wants to have artificial disc replacement instead of what the Sabres’ docs are insisting on, the more commonplace fusion surgery.

The ADR surgery has never been done on an NHL player. Some teams who have reviewed the info from Brisson remain hesitant, but a few teams are warming up to the idea, sources say."

Hearing today is a good day to be a Florida Panther — an extension for Aleksander Barkov is nearing.

Well Fish wasn't exactly helping the situation and that's why he's gone.

i'm with you on peterka, but the best place for him to start the season might very well be rochester...he's got an upgrade in competition, a longer regular season and the prospect of the sabres being a utter disaster (which i don't think they'll be) to contend with...that's a lot for a 19 yr. old
