Hey VMM,
Phillips makes JG look like a man.

Your Pens are looking decimated before the season even starts.

Oh no, thats a normal training camp! At least one of Sid or Geno injured, plus a few else, so we can ice two 4th lines the first weeks.

Some interesting thoughts on Eichel:
Teams are getting Eichel’s medical records but the asking price is still “insane”
Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News: Jack Eichel could get the artificial disk replacement surgery if he wants but he wouldn’t get paid if he did. He can only get his pay if follows the advice of the Buffalo Sabres medical team. Everyone knows the Sabres prefer the fusion surgery.
The Sabres won’t trade Eichel unless they get a big return, and that isn’t easy to do when a player is injured.
Since he rejected the Sabres medical advice, he’ll likely be suspended for the start of the season. Since he’s going to lose pay anyways, he should go ahead and get the surgery he wants. The Sabres want the return for an Eichel trade, so they aren’t going to terminate his contract.
It’s still believed that they are asking for at least four assets for Eichel.
