The Kings & Rangers have seemingly been “leaking” things for weeks in hopes of driving down the price for Eichel

I think both teams are still VERY interested

Oh I despise the Rags as a trade for echl. And not just because I don’t like the “top” prospects they have but no this homer is saying there are like 3-4 untouchables on their team. GTFO

Pretty much, Adams needs to hold strong until he hears something he likes and moves the needle.

Unless a team really overpays, I'd ship him outside the division and conference.

Wonder what Seattle would be willing to give for eichel.

Pegula doesn't want to pay, so don't be fooled thinking it's all Eichel that wants out.

At this point,
I’m resigned to the idea that Eichel is getting traded
I don’t really care why anymore
Just hoping for a great return so we can move on

"The Blueshirts have been linked to Eichel since last summer, when then-GM Jeff Gorton had pre-draft discussions with his Buffalo counterpart Kevyn Adams. The talks are believed to have broken down when Gorton refused to part with the first-overall selection that became Alexis Lafreniere."


kagm needs to stand firm with jack echl to the rags--it's lafreniere or bust...plus any trade must include rags 2021 first and buffalo's 3rd...

imo, of course

That’s the another reason I hate the rags. It’s giving echl almost exactly what he wants (Boston or NYR). Send his ass west. I don’t want to see him on a regular basis.

Seattle would be an all futures deal that’s for sure. And they could take Gus… he isn’t one to lose sleep over. Borgen, tallness, asplund I think can still show me more. I know what Gus is…

Money. contracts. Adams has to find ways to get big money out. This "Suffering" is going to be worse then Darcy's " Suffering".

"Character and leadership issues have been raised around Eichel, who has spent his career following his 2015 door-prize, second-overall selection behind Connor McDavid with the most dysfunctional franchise in the league. Drury is certainly examining those issues."

If it's about contracts then find a way to move Skinner and Okposo, you don't move a 1C because you don't want to pay the contract you gave him. Jesus people start hearing this and we have problems getting players to come already, nobody will come here.

Scorched earth? Seriously? Well I guess that meshes with what others have been saying - we are going to be young next year.
