So you know for a fact that by not allowing him to get his preferred surgery, and instead letting him remain injured Sabres property, KA is somehow going to increase his trade value?

Well, no one can know for sure, but I think it is pretty reasonable to conclude that waiting for teams like Vegas, Montreal, etc to feel pressure will result in better offers than whatever has been offered to date. There also doesn’t seem to be much if any downside to waiting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There also doesn’t seem to be much if any downside to waiting. Definitely comes a point where there’s a downside to waiting. A situation where the asset merely expires isn’t good asset management in the slightest. There’s certainly value in acquiring an asset sooner rather than later. A 2023 1st is worth more than a 2024 first, for example There is no downside to waiting, provided the return is maximized to the point of making the wait worth it If we were to get no return, a lesser return, or an equal return after waiting, all 3 of those scenarios would represent a downside to waiting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with @PromoTheRobot. I remember people here having torches and pitchforks ready if GMKA had traded Eichel for returns the vast majority of posters today would find acceptable. But by not caving, he can't increase Eichel's value. GMKA must juggle several factors, some of which work against each other. He can't allow Eichel to get the ADR surgery because the Pegulas would be legally on the hook for Eichel's health for the rest of his life -- even after trading him. Thus, ADR is not on the table barring something negative happening, whence Eichel's value cannot be increased that way. Hence, we are at the current impasse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kas23 Posted October 30, 2021 Report Share Posted October 30, 2021 Jack should get going on the grievance. Until then, how can anyone have any sympathy for him during this impasse? The CBA is clear in what should be done in such a situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
