If they're losing Eichel and Reinhart, I don't see them being competitive in the next 3 years, and if they're not competitive in the next 3 years, I don't want late-stage Jeff Skinner

Cap dumps need to be separate from jack.

Or not. Like I said, if Seattle wants Eichel and Skinner for their 1st, I'm in.

That's a hard reset I can get behind

I think there should be a Jack for Jack trade

TO NJD: Jack Eichel
TO BUF: Jack Hughes, Mercer Dawson, 2021 1st + 2022 2nd

That’s a great START.......

How much more do you really think you will get. If I can get 3 good young players to step into my lineup that help this team. This is a Team sport, 1 player no matter how good doesn't make a Team.

I’ve always been a Sam supporter,
but if we trade Eichel- idk that there’s much point to keeping Sam through even more losing

When he said he doesn't want to be part of a rebuilding team that means Jack talked to him beforehand.

I wonder if they both will go on a Double deal

I think the only way you're getting rid of Skinner is a three-way-deal with you still retaining $4.5M.

Is that something that was said or you heard. Did Rhino say that or Risto.

- jcragcrumple

You would just trade jack for a 1st ?

I mean there's a better chance that is true, but we have to see what happens. Until there both gone we don't know. But it could make us a better overall team depending on the pieces brought back.

It sucks that this is how it’s playing out,
but i think that’s where the hope lies at this point

If I could essentially reset the cap to zero in the process, yes.

Idk what u mean with that last line bc I’ve never said anything like that??

Shesterkin & Fox would be great
I want two 1sts with them also

If you are getting rid of all these contracts you're gonna have to get to the salary cap so having skinner Isn't going to be a big deal when we don't have a team

Gonna be hard for a team to fit in 18ish mil in cap space they’d need trading for both of them

Sure seems like they’re both gonna be gone though

- gerbe75pts

In 3 years when we're (hopefully) good again, we'd be glad that salary is gone

Like I said You're trading both Sam and Jack you need to get a young center the rangers aren't the team

NMC Disappear!


- jcragcrumple

I’m sorry man but if the return for Eichel is simply Matt Beniers or Eklund, just fold this franchise for good.

Cap space means absolutely nothing to us if we’re moving Eichel

It sucks that this is how it’s playing out,
but i think that’s where the hope lies at this point
- jdfitz77

Yeah but I am not saying a total rebuild, this is adding young NHL pieces to what we have already have. I don't need draft picks, they would be nice, but I want young NHL players. IMO opinion this team can compete know with the right pieces brought back.

- jcragcrumple

The NHL will probably have one of those out clauses again

Wasn't saying you, just my opinion

- jcragcrumple

We still have to hit the Cap floor
With the trades it looks like we’re making,
there will be TONS of cap space available
We won’t need to make Cap dumps
