WildCard Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 The trade freeze lifts Thursday 7/22/2021 at 1pm. The draft is the next night, Friday 7/23/2021, at 8pm. That window is really the window where Eichel and Reinhart will be moved, and most likely Ristolainen. So, who do you think is moved?

Thorny Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I think all 3 move, (Eichel at 100%) with Reinhart having a 20% chances of staying and Risto having a 35% chance of staying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm okay with this except Eichel at 100%. I'm less sure he'll be traded. Also think it maybe later rather than sooner before any are traded.

Carmel Corn Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I could easily be wrong, but the more this goes on, the more it feels that NOTHING will happen before the draft. GMKA will not make a trade just to make a trade and will cite that the return was not enough to justify making a change. GMKA will select Power at 1OA and then we'll watch other teams make moves, but not Buffalo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other two could be moved at draft if it gets us another high first round pick. Otherwise I think all three will be later in summer.

Cal Naughton Jr Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I don’t believe there is a reality that exists where none of them get traded. At least one is going somewhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still with @dudacekthat the injury dynamics are being slightly overplayed. At least if we can believe at all some of the rumored packages being suggested (though I suppose w/o confirmation we can't). The offers being suggested to me are so noteworthy in terms of value that I more so see the gap between these deals and what we "want" for Jack Eichel to be more representative of a "bargaining play" by opposing GMs (run-of-the-mill negotiating, more less) and less representative of an "injury discount" on a severely injured player. We won't know until we see the return, but in my head I don't see teams being like, "well, there's a good chance this guy will never get back to health, so I'm not giving up Trevor Zegras, but 3rd overall and a top 6 player? Have at it". Edited July 20, 2021 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreeman Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 @WildCard -- is the question "which of the 3 will be moved at or before the draft?" or is it "which of the 3 will be moved before the start of the season?" Or other? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Eichel to Minnesota for Rossi, 22nd, Addison, and Rask Reinhart to LA for Turcotte and 8oa Ristolainen to the sun for idgaf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think he's the most likely to get traded anyway because some teams do seem to believe he's a good player and he's in a position where the Sabres are fairly deep so return doesn't matter as much. Eich and Reino move only if between them we get a 1C back (or a 2C capable of playing on the top line for a while). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Reino has the lowest odds of moving, but the likelihood is still much higher than 50% IMO. And the difference in return between Jack and Sam will be about the equivalent of a 3rd line forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shootica Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) I'll throw out a prediction: Reinhart and Risto get moves, Eichel does not. Edited July 20, 2021 by Shootica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I think they are all gone Apparently the rumours that look plausible are Samson to La for Turcotte and 8OA Eichel to minnesota Boldy, Rossi, 22 OA + Dumba Ristolainen to philly ??

dudacek Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 As confident as I am the Sam could garner a top 10 pick in value, there is no way he’s getting the equivalent of two top 10 picks in 8 and Turcotte. Turcotte’s star has fallen a bit, but not that much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
