Dear sir,

So sorry. I picked the apple, but I didn't eat it.

I can't blame ralph for being old and Senile... I blame whoever let him in the building

I'm watching season 2 of Ted Lasso and I can't help but think of RK every time I turn it on

No it was me. That's what I get for trolling but I thought the long-winded paragraph was very clearly a blatant troll-job, but I forgot who we're dealing with on here.

Go make another account... That name doesn't roll off the tongue

There doesn't need to be any approach as he's injured and needs surgery according to him.

Do you think the Sabres want him wearing the jersey ever again?
- kingcong39

Makes sense to wait as long as they can /both sides for a surgery date.

Eichel doesnt want to play here
Tank4 doesnt need players now

If I were to bet, eichel never plays again.
85%

I've mentioned before, the Olympics seem like a solid return for eichel.
Prove his health
Trade him at the deadline and eat 3 million per x this season prorated at the deadline at 4 years after.

Trading team - either the rangers or la kings
In the playoff hunt or hanging in 8th spot

Acquire eichel for a cheap run this year / tdl in 1.5 million
4 years at 7 million for cheap eichel

Return is tremendous and we do not take loser cap dumps in return.
Helps the cap floor
Get rid of skimmer in years 4 and 5. If you need the room because your paying eichel still

Man, I'm really holding back on this one because I would for sure get the hammer if I posted what I was going to.

But seriously give it a rest dude.

Ryan O'Reilly...?
- kingcong39

True forgot him. Sabres traded for him knowing how much he wanted though. Not saying it doesn’t fit the mold here, just not exactly a sign and trade.

Assuming the NHL goes to the winter Olympics?

If he's suspended he could go of his own volition. Can't suspend him again. Granted he'd have to pick up his own insurance costs

O'Reilly was in the same situation as Reinhart.

Wanted out of Colorado, one year left of RFA status, would only go where he was willing to sign, etc.

Too bad another team didn't have Tim Murray as their GM when Adams traded Reinhart.

Wait, so Eichel is going to go on his own to the Winter Olympics if the entire NHL doesn't go?

We need an Eichel trade

Bust, bust, compher, 2nd for RoR and Mcginn.

Bust (LeviFan coming soon) 1st for Reinhart

Whole buncha busties poppin

Olympics and Jack and the NHL are fine and all but ya'll gonna keep acting like the COVID-pandemic isn't now becoming an epidemic?

The world has a better chance of locking down again than the NHL does of going to the Olympics... which are being held in... China.

Gio did something similar in '18.

If Eichel is already suspended and wants to win gold while upping his trade value, it's not a bad play

I file the chances of this happening right up there with FDR coming back alive as a secret agent from Mars.

Won't have to worry about though as he'll be on another team before then.

Seems like the NHL left 3 weeks open in February.

Sabres do not have a home game in February

Eichel is going to do what eichel wants to do.

Also no flat cap where most teams are strung out for cash and unwilling to move prospects or picks because of it.

I think we're about 100-200 years away from that, actually.

Hindsight, eh?

It was a pair of 1st round picks and a pair of 2nd round picks for O'Reilly.

They did, in case they go, but it's not certain they are going.
