they shouldn't...jack is exactly what they needed on the ice--a bonafide no. 1 center

kagm showed some steely kahunas throughout this process...

and, taken as a whole, this is what he got for jack, sam and risto

3 first rounders
krebs (1st rounder) tuch (1st rounder) haag (vet), levi (7th round)
2 seconds in 2023

darcy-level?...not quite, but a job well done none-the-less

I've liked Adam's from his qualities of hard working nhl player. .... Buffalo guy.

He's extremely likeable, you cant fake it.

The pegula's paid for his business schooling and have been grooming him for years.

"I dealt with the jack " then says ",thing"

Like he referred to the situation as "the jack" 😀😀😀

The team who just traded for him is letting him get it.

It’s partly on the Sabres that he’s not healthy yet

jack had options

could have gone to arbitration in may/june and playing today if he won his case

The return is good. I'm more or less just happy that this thing is over. Time to move on.

Give it time. Vegas still got the best player in this deal. Unless something goes tragically wrong with Eichel's surgery, he'll essentially be better than any deadline pickup they can get for the Golden Knights. They'll be a machine come playoff time.

flip side, jack may not play 20 more games in the nhl

I have also said repeatedly I will, provided there’s something to take an L for boss man. Proving it in the A doesn’t mean I have to do anything. Also if Rossi is a stud, do i still have to take an L? Or is it a wash as they’re both good? Asking almighty one.

As a whole, your a great poster. We've disagreed over the years. ☝️

The whole quinn was a bad pick , not accurate and needed public shame 😉

Everyone who thinks The Golden Knights overwhelmingly won this trade is forgetting Jack Eichel is going to be living in Las Vegas

The logic doesn't make any sense. Yes, they're decimated with injuries, but nothing in that trade makes that worse. Tuch was already out for a long time and Krebs has posted a literal goose egg stat line in his 9 games with Vegas this year. They still have assets to acquire bodies if they need to.

the one thing I really like on adams


sounds like he refuses to compromise

doesn't talk bad about the players

only wants players that want to be here (wonder if this is from what he learned in locker room during his playing days)

There's a better likelihood of me breaking 80 at Sawgrass on Monday (i.e. none).

Quinn is bad vs Rossi is the better prospect is where some of you need to read more. Not once did I say Quinn was bad, or a bad pick (unless you infer that Rossi would have been a better pick is saying Quinn is a bad pick, in which case fine but that is semantics). There is way more time for this to sort itself out, and I stand by Rossi being a really good player, in which case I was right regardless of Quinn is also a really good player. Also position of need, center being priority always. So shame away if you need, I stand by what I said and time will tell if I'm right or not (hence how can I be inaccurate).

Eichel is on par with Matthews. An injured Eichel isnt on par with Matthews.

There is no way that Jack is on the same level has Mathews

Eichel is way better all around.

It ain't even close my guy.

Mathews is the better scorer.

Jack Eichel in Vegas is like a kid in a candy shop. All the Hookers and Blow he could ever want.
