Yeah, that'll hurry it up... This is what I said before, if he wants out and it's been made clear that they aren't giving him away for nothing then he has no choice but to show up, play hard, and be a good citizen. If I were Adams I'd also throw in there that if you want your boy to be traded you need to waive the NMC for at least two years after this one. You don't wanna do that, ok fine, you're not going to be traded. The ice is to your left, LTIR is to your right. Choose.
I agree with you, but I think KA has a player’s GM vibe going on and I can’t see him doing this.

Adams admitted publicly he's working on a deal, right? This is the territory
I realize that, it just conjures up images of Jack breaking sticks and slamming doors on the ice.

I actually think that's pretty funny.
He probably went from thinking he was gonna play in Vegas this season to thinking he’s stuck here still.

Reports of Jack’s camp being frustrated really doesn’t help the whole image thing.

And that's fine. "Culture" is way overblown. Don't rush a trade when his value is ebbing low - just keep him.
I don’t think culture is overblown at all but I agree not to sell low.
-
Think if it doesn’t happen today we're really going to be in no man’s land. Meaning we will have no likely idea when it could happen, and it may not even be until next season’s trade deadline.
-
I definitely respect KA for holding this long, think we all should.
Wonder what happens if we can’t move him and both sides are still fighting over the surgery come October?
-
Tuch is a nice player but it’s not as if he is a PPG player or something. Not even close to that. If they say a player like him is untouchable it really makes you question if we can even really “win” a trade with them at all in the long run of all of this.
Then again, I’m not even sure how important NHL ready players are to KA in this.
-
For a former 1st round pick he does.
-
If these cheap skate GMs don’t want to suffer a bit for Jack and essentially demand to be gifted him, I say we walk. Maybe even offer sheet one of their guys too!
Okay now I’m being emotional, but still. This is beyond ridiculous, it’s like they’re trying to fleece KA. I feel like they’re all the NYR at this point.

If it helped Buffalo, I don’t care. I’m seeing too many people who are just afraid to see a player leave Buffalo and succeed.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying don’t pull the trigger on it. I’m just thinking out loud, it could be rough come playoff time. That’s all.

I’d be fine with it and wouldn’t care. I only care about the position this team is in. It’s not good.
I only care about this team too. But I didn’t like having to hear RORs comments, and I certainly didn’t like seeing him win the cup right after. Many other average Sabres fans probably felt the same way. This would be like that, but even more so because of what we had to suffer through to get him.
-
Can you imagine Jack in Vegas and going deep into the playoffs next year and maybe even raising the cup? Ugh.
-
I wouldn’t call Devon Levi and a first round pick nothing for a one year rental on Sam.

Hahahahaha this franchise is doomed until we get some people in the right places that have any clue what they are doing. Do u actually feel confident KA can actually trade eichel for anything that you will be happy with? I sure dont
He can only take the best of what is offered, or not move him. KA has been seemingly very patient so far, don’t see how we can criticize him already. It’s not as if he’s turning down a better offer.

The Rags would not only have to match what Vegas, Minn or Anaheim could offer (they won’t) they’d have to beat it because they’re in our conference. No way he’s going to NYR.

And according to many posters, Murray and his tank will be responsible for us stocking that team to greatness.
With McNabb
To be fair McNabb was a high prospect at the time though. We all liked him.

I really had my heart set on Minn but all the smoke today is coming from Vegas.
-
Wonder if this is really the Buffalo ask though? Because if it’s less than this, as in Vegas negotiates down, we’re gonna have an issue.

I had Smith on my fantasy team last season, 25 points was a let down but he may have just had an off year. Last year was weird anyway.
-
Once Powers is ready, we would have two giants on the blue line with the addition of Hague. Our dcorps would get considerably larger.
-
Hague would be a nice pick up, that’s one big boy.

Must get 2 capable goalies above all else
Agreed, this is not talked about enough. A strong spine is a must, but a team should be built from back to front IMO.

What about my Reinhart?
I feel for you. Got my oldest an Eichel 50th a couple years ago. It’s her first and only jersey. It definitely stings.

Jack Eichel: Trade rumors and speculation
in The Aud Club

Jack is probably feeling like this.
