Mystery solved. It was my neighbors tenant that had never been to his house.

"Teams likely reached out during the year but Buffalo’s trade ask was reported to be astronomical. “They are not sure if they are going to trade him or not,” TVA’s Renaud Lavoie said in March. “If they trade him they want four pieces that are first round picks. Or players that are playing if not in the NHL or elsewhere like the NCAA – that were first round picks and are having success and not struggling.

Since that information came to light and coupled with his neck injury, teams likely wrote off an Eichel trade. However, his name has been rampant in trade rumors again. This is all likely being generated out of Buffalo. They may be trying to create a trade market that doesn’t exist."


I'm glad I can play a small part in countering the ridiculous low-ball narratives coming from downstate

I would never suggest that local media should carry the water for an organization- on the contrary I think it's pretty gross.

But if you watched how the Philadelphia media pumped up a potential Carson Wentz return then you saw what an impact the media landscape can have. No one at the Buffalo News wants to see the Sabres or the Pegulas suceed on an Eichel trade. They're far more interested in lambasting them for an awful return imo

The entire Sabres sports scene from top to bottom is toxic

Is it 3 mos for fusion and 6 mos for replacement?

TBN's axe grinding dates back to Pegula's meetings with the local media outlets. Don't think the News took kindly to what he was pushing

Other way around, as the long as the body doesn't reject the replacement disc and it doesn't fail it can be a quicker fix and recovery.

And look how well Vin Scully and Sal Capaccio took to what the Bills were selling. Harrington is doing no one any favors with his ridiculous Sam Reinhart diatribes: Not himself, not the Sabres and not Reinhart.

It's a poisoned well. Absolutely toxic

Why do you think Rhino hates doing anything with the media, he was never comfortable with it in the first place and Harrington just adds to it.

It's a long tradition of pushing good players out of town due to organizational disfunction

Not arguing that. Jim Kelley, Jerry Sullivan, Bucky and Harrington are all in the same vein

All that information is on regular everyday people like me or you. It's a huge ? for Eichel, it could work perfectly and he could have no issues, but if it fails it could turn into a big problem.

The Philadelphia media pumped up a potential Carson Wentz return? Really. You listen to WIP or something? The expected return was coming from the organization, not the media. Everyone around here was like yeah ok, that sounds great if you can get it. That’s how I remember it. I don’t think you know what you’re talking about.

The word coming out of the Philly media was that Eagles were demanding a first - everyone knew that was excessive because Wentz was a garbage juice QB last year.

But the fact that the Philadelphia media pumped up that narrative got them a conditional pick

I don't think the virulence was there. Could be wrong as I wasn't locked into the Bills at that stage. Milt Northrup and Vic Carucci (his first run) never seemed like that to me in the earlier days
