Mr. Preachy
I mean there is no other reason Buffalo would even entertain trading him.
If he gets traded here, its going to be at JG's price. If Buffalo and Eichel's agent are telling the truth, then he isn't available to begin with.
You posted it, people read it, but the misinformation contributed.

Imagine the deal is done but the NHL just asked the teams to wait for the finals to be over before announcing, since its such a big trade.

The second tweet seems most realistic to me. I could be wrong and in 6 months he could be a Ranger for a package that will have us all dancing and cheering. I'd be thrilled to be wrong in that case.

He may not have yet said it publicly but may have said it behind closed doors. There were rumors he was unhappy last off-season. That was prior to this years crappy showing

There's going to be obvious posturing by both sides. But, look at the history of these type of deals. Superstar player gets dealt, the return on a consistent basis is 1) top six forward, 2)top four Dman, 3) quality prospect and 4) 1st round pick. I don't expect Gorton to be an outlier if he makes this type of deal.

If Eichel wants out, Buffalo has no choice but to take back the best package they can get for him.
No one will offer anything like the 1 OA or Kakko. And again, what team has the space/assets to match or beat a base package around Chytil, DeAngelo and the 22OA?
Not saying thats all it would take, but thats a young center, a young, top 5 offensive D in the league and the pick to start.

Hypothetically
Eichel for buch deangelo 22 lias and henriksson
strome for a late first or 2 2nds
Georgiev for a 2nd and a 3rd
kreider Mika gauthier
Panarin eichel kakko
Lafreniere chytil Kravtsov
Lemieux howden some random good 4th liner
miller trouba
Lindgren fox
Reunanen smith
something like that
Defensively very young, green, mobile, etc. well give up chances but we’ll be able to outscore our deficiencies.

And, if you're including DeAngelo and Buchnevich in the deal, then moving Strome for picks to Ottawa, as has been speculated, courtesy of @Edge, that's an additional another $4.5 million or so from Buch alone, and not having to re-sign DeAngelo, Chytil or Strome, plus the $5.7 million from dumping Staal. Trouba would not have to be in the deal.

All bias aside, I could give a shit less if Troubda is shipped out before 10/9. Everyone raves about Nils, and I think the kid coming into an environment where he's not immediately relied on for point production purely may even ease him into the team faster and with quicker results.
Also, holy shit would that be a monster hose job if we get Eichel for something like Troubda/Howden/22+ Lindbom or some shit.

Eric Lindros coming out of juniors didn't bring back the 1OA.

Jack Eichel would be such a Rangers solution to finding a #2C.
I’ve literally accomplished nothing productive today, aside for ordering $39 of BarTaco.

ADA and Strome are projected to get about 5 mil each, so that's roughly 10 mil in and 11 mil out, but we have to replace ADA and Chytil. Assume the replacements make 2 mil total. It's a little tighter, but doable, depending on what Lemmy gets.
I just don't see any reason why Buffalo would accept that. In the unlikely event that Buffalo trades Eichel, they are going to be looking for roster players who make them better now. They aren't going to want futures, and everything you are offering is futures, except ADA. And no, I don't think adding Strome to the deal would move the needle. I honestly don't see a deal happening unless we send Zibby +.

Even hypothetically that deal doesn't get it done.
What would be the point of trading for Eric Staal to be a #2 C then trading their only other NHL C on their entire roster, for a Euro who may not want to come back, a 2nd rd prospect, a decent scoring winger which they don't need all that much and a RHD which is their deepest position.
I mean, I get those are the expendable pieces for NY but what are BUF's need: Centers, LD.
What are NYR's needs?
Centers, LD
Now see why a deal between the 2 is extremely unlikely.
