You're also not proving yours. WGR reporters random speculation, especially after what they did to ROR and Reinhart, and guest callers are not evidence.
That's right. Dregger and Friedman are clueless, they don't know what they are talking about. Did not realize you get paid to post on this forum. Lol

They also coincided with ROR being here at the time of that trade - in fact, all of the talk was explicitly about him being a clump of cancerous tumor cells. It turned out that our team actually just had a lot of bad hockey players, and it still does. How did it work out that time? The rumors are weaker, less confident, and more vague this time - surely they are correct, so let's go through another embarrassing bout of character assassination! It didn't burn us badly last time or anything!
Not all critique of eichel is what I describe above, nor is the desire to trade him, which I actually have. The make believe stuff drives me up a wall though. "You can't prove he's not!" Is not an argument
Everyone on GR says it. Even guest. But you keep on being that sheep!

They also coincide with Risto, 3 GMs, 4 head coaches, 2 tanks, a 10 year playoff drought, and 4 last in the league finishes.
All good points but you are still not disproving mine.

Do we have evidence that Jack Eichel, destroyer of locker rooms, is really the cause of our woes?
For years the locker room dysfunction has been reported. Can you say he is not? Those reports coincide with him being here.

If those are the offers you just keep Eichel.
And let him destroy the locker room more than it is?

At least you gave something tangible for us to compare after the fact. But it depends on what you mean by 2 top prospects and a 1st round pick. Are you saying we'd be lucky to get Zegras, Drysdale, and 3OA? Because I certainly agree. But maybe you're saying we'd be lucky to get Boldy, Khovanov, and pick 25. And I certainly think we'll do better than that.
Who is overvaluing Eichel, and by how much? Do people think he is a perfect hockey player, who doesn't get injured?
I'm not saying you but a very high percentage of people are overvaluing Eichel on this forum.
I think your Minny trade is dead on maybe 22 OA instead. From the Rangers maybe Shesterkin, Jones, 16 OA.

People are throwing names around like: Zegras, Drysdale, Dach, Byfield, Turcotte, Kaprizov, Lafranierre, Miller, Fox, Lundkvist, no way Sabres get that level of prospect back.
-
The way Eichel is being overvalued is hilarious. He is a flawed player with an injury history. He has missed roughly 80 games in his career.
I loved the pick when it happened, that's why it's so disappointing.
Sabres will be lucky to get 2 top prospects and a 1st round pick. That's probably if they eat money.

I'm not sure he's a starter?
Dreidger is a guy you pick up if you think you're definitely getting Ullmark back.
Ullmark is not a starter. Guy can't stay healthy, hopefully he is gone. The best ability is availability!

Well, that sucks. Screw it, keep him then.
Ask for more. Turcotte, Madden, Kempe, 1st this year, 2nd next year.

He should be traded by the expansion draft. It will be another organizational failure if they have to protect players who will not be on the roster(Eichel, Reinhardt, possibly Risto). Losing Borgen or Asplund would be incompetent.

Would be lucky to get Tkachuk, prospect, and 1st for Jack. That goes for both Calgary and Ottawa.
Jack is flawed and the league knows.

How long until he is back in r@#$b.?

Are not on the roster

Is Jack Eichel the new Pierre Turgeon?
No, he is hockey's version of Cris Carter!

Keep him away from the party crew!

No new rumors? Not very encouraging

The best ability is availability. Position needs to be upgraded.

My mistakes
Eichel is a flawed player with a big injury history. He has missed 91 games in 5 years. They are not getting a Byfield, Zegras, Drysdale, Kaprizov, Turcotte, Lafranierre, type player coming back.
Edit: @Curtcaught it missed 78 in 6 years. Still a significant amount.
