21, 31, 51 and a prospect for Drouin?

If Stevie Y comes to me and says, here's the offer, yes or no. Depends on the prospect. But that's 4 prospects for 1 NHL ready guy with great skill who's being benched right now. I don't know. I think I would, but it's hard to give up 4 guys for one. Tarasenko, yeah I would. Drouin.. can't really decide. This must be a good offer.

Take a shot of whiskey and siddown jr, it's not like he's even available.

Speaking of the Seguin trade... he was traded for less value.

In a sense it isn't unlike the Kane trade. I'll trade a package of mid-level prospects for a top-line player every day of the week. We're one or two top-line wingers away from being ready to get it on.

Right, but it's fun to kick around. There have been reports that the lightning are less than enamored with him. They'd be foolish to move him but it isn't unheard of.

Thats probably why Edmonton wouldn't do it. They need more picks like a hole in the head. Similar to Buffalo, they need players they can ice yesterday. Teams to do the picks/prospects trading with are ones against the Celry cap with a bunch of older players.

No way does he fit their scorched earth policy.

I think it remains to be seen what direction the Leafs will go now that they've got Babcock

Man. I'm really ready for this draft to be done with already. The hype train has run it's course and I cannot wait for October. Knowing that the roster won't be constructed to lose intentionally is more than good enough for me to be excited!

Eichel clearly wasn't happy that something aid in an interview with a team got out, "I thought that was pretty confidential within the team"

It wasn't necessarily Murray, or the Sabres, who spilled the beans on what Eichel said.

Murray just confirmed to GR that the kid said it. I'm sure he said it to all the teams he interviewed with.

If anyone was going to do it, it would be Murray.

In an interview with WGR 550 in Buffalo, Sabres general manager Tim Murray confirmed a Boston Globe report that Eichel has been telling teams in interviews that he will be better than McDavid as a pro.

“He said that,” Murray confirmed about Eichel’s better-than-McDavid remarks to WGR. “I think he should say that. Why not say that? I think he believes it.

Per CBS sports.

We can speculate all day whether it was Murray or not. We may never find out.

He only said it to one team. So its obvious where it came from.

Sounds to me like he's said it to more than one.

We were talking about Drouin in tampa. I honestly don't now what they would want in return. It could be high picks because they've just graduated several of their top-end prospects.

I'm staying impact wise like what he could be for us and the potential. Superstar he could be for us

I blame whoever's in charge of PR. A 6th grader could have told him to keep that quote to himself.
