Speculation: Jack Eichel thread

[LongWayDown37]

Sabres want the other type, because....?

…because the Sabres have guaranteed Eichel $80Million, a quarter of their entire net worth, and the teams trusted doctors recommend that ADR is not a preferred course of action.

The players might want to consider giving up guaranteed contracts if they don’t want teams to have that kind of authority. These teams assume all of the financial risk for players barely older than high school age. Meanwhile many teams in the league lose money on an annual basis while fans get raped to pay for the contracts. Spare me the player tears.

Vegas' Twitter guy is reporting Vegas has acquired Eichel. Any legit news?

BUF receives Peyton Krebs, Reilly Smith, Jonas Ronbjerg, a 2022 1st rd pick & a conditional 2023 3rd rd pick.

Is he not, i wont watch sabers games but I thought he could handle top 4 mins.

He can, but he’s not a preferable top 4 guy. He’s basically someone you want to be your worst top 4 guy, who gets like 17 minutes a game and like, 3 additional minutes of PP and/or pulled goalie time.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Time to refresh Twitter for the next hour until it’s announced Eichel has been traded to Vegas for Krebs…..

Looks like Silfverberg was removed from the Ducks roster, is he headed to Buffalo ? He wasn't injured or anything.
Has been nearly a point per game this year after getting that surgery he needed in the offseason because he played last season injured all season long.
For salary purposes Silf makes sense to be going back to Buffalo and he's looking like a solid asset by himself to help insulate the youth in Buffalo.

McTavish + Silf +++ ?

Better not include Terry, Zegras or Drysdale.

He's like a more physical version of Ghostisbehere. Ideally you want him on the bottom pairing. Or as the #7.

He was placed on IR yesterday.

I think they're just trolling at this point.

That is odd re: Silfverberg not being on the roster. I'd be happy with him filling the salary filler role in any Eichel deal. He's a solid two-way guy.

Re: Terry, he's been awesome this year, but amazing how many Ducks fans who thought Comtois was more valuable than Terry during the offseason and have completely flipped in <10 games this year.

Terry hadnt put it together in the past, had a couple hot stretches, comtois just seemed to have the puck follow him around in his first year. Comtois style seemed to be ideal for Zegras... where terry is more or less a similer player to Zegras. Right now Zegras and Terry are both effectively running different lines.

Now terry is playing with confidence, and looks fantastic... and comtois, well no one really knows whats up with him... but he doenst look anywhere near the same player as last year.

But i think most duck fans preferred to move Comtois over Terry for eichel(even before the season started), not sure i ever really saw Terrys name mentioned by any duck fans or sabre fans.

Has a player being removed from the team roster ever directly preceded a trade? I have a hard time believing that the Ducks' social media/website team would have this info before it was announced or before the big media names.

 

[Iwishihadaspacebar]

Silfverberg has 12-team no trade list, why would he not have Buffalo on there? Makes no sense really.
