To ottawa : Jack eichel

To buffalo : ryan dzingle, logan brown, nick paul, a 1st in 2018, and a 3rd in 2019

Ottawa gets an inexpensive counter to Toronto's Austin Matthews and top end forward assuming he can stay healthy.

Buffalo gets a couple draft pick in case the players don't work out, plus 1 of the fastest players in the league who can slip into there top 6 now in dzingle, a top prospect with top 6 potential (again assuming he stays healthy) in Logan Brown, and a big body power forward prospect who could play a shut down role on their bottom 6 in nick Paul.

Eichel and the buffalo coach don't see eye to eye anyway so it makes sense for both sides.


Ottawa new lines (not necessarily in this order)

MacArthur turris Ryan
Hoffman brassard stone
Burrows pageau eichel
Smith white pyatt

Claisson Karlsson
Phaneuf Chabot
Oduya Ceci

Scratches

Harpur borvievski wingles.

Really? Then you stick a elite centerman on the third line. only way buffalo trades Eichel is if Karlson is coming back, so it's not even slightly realistic.

I would like to apologize on behalf of all sens fans for this gentleman's stupidness.

Chabot would be a good starting point.

1) in the same division. Why would Buffalo give otttawa 'an answer to Austin Matthews'. They need one too!
2) not nearly enough coming back to trade 20 yr old #1 centre
3) eichel on the third line?!
4) inexpensive? For another season, then he's going to be asking for his due, which will make him the highest paid sen
5) Sabres fired the coach because they apparently didn't get along, new coach hasn't started. They didn't just fire bylsma and pay him millions to leave, to give away eichel.

And hoff, we don't blame you. We all feel embarrassed by our own fans from time to time.

Completely understand Hoff.

Right when I thought I've seen it all, this gets posted.
Could be the worst proposal in history of bad proposals.

Your kidding right? 2 young blue chip prospects both top 6 potential 1 already in top 6 calibre today plus a big body role player and a 1st and 3rd pick

for a relatively unproven top 6 foward, ill be it crazy potential, and injury prone since day 1 who has shown attitude issues towards coaches

Is somehow not enough to get him? Rofl

Sorry guys 1 sakic in the league is enough this is the real world not nhl video games where you ask the world for a star player lol

And mertle. eichel wouldn't be enough for karlsson's jock strap bud dream on.

I'm just curious though. I like to think I follow the league pretty closely and would like to know if I'm missing something here?

But what exactly has eichel done so far to merit more than 2 blue chip prospects and a 1st round pick let alone adding a 3rd and a decent big body prospect on top of all that besides getting benched a number of times, arguing with the coach a number of times, and being injured a number of times?

Just wandering where the trade logic from some of the people on here comes from? It's crazy to think how some players are so overvalued to some people while other players who have earned more respect than what they're shown get so under valued.

Sorry to tell you folks but karlsson and Chabot are not the only talented players or prospects on the sens rosters. And that's just 1 team I'm talking about here.

I agree that Eichel doesn't have the same value as Karlson at this point in time. Eichel had 57 points in 62 games last season. Draisatl barley beat him in ppg standings having played a good church of the season on McDavids wing (not a knock on draisatl cause he's awesome) my point is that Eichel had a good year despite starting late due to injury and still put up good numbers on s less than mediocre hockey team. Dzingel is 25 years old and just cracking sens lineup, nick Paul is 22 years old and doesn't look like he'll make the team this year or next. The only one that has decent value is brown and mid to late first. I think the only way to make the sabers think about it would be to start with chabot and white. That's the price you pay for s 20 year old potential franchise player.

25 year old Dzingel with 42 career points is a blue chip prospect and 21 year old Eichel with 113 points has proven that much? I don't know maybe I misread that but wow something's gotten be wrong there.

1. Dzingel isn't a prospect dude, he's 24. Safe to say he's reached his peak as a top 9 FWD.

2. Logan Brown is well on his way to being a bust, players drafted after him are developing and excelling in their leagues i. e: Micheal Mcloed drafted right after Brown.

3. Jack Eichel had a 0.93 P/ GPm which would have been the highest on the Sens. Yes. even higher than Karlssons.

Jack Eichel is a franchise player. you don't get them for scraps my dude.

Senskills. 2 'blue chip prospects' lol a 4th rounder from 4 drafts ago who is putting up .50 pts per game in the AHL is a blue chip prospect? And you say we are overvaluing eichel?!?!
Eichel missed 21 games this year. As a 19/ 20 year old he had a better points per game than ovechkin, tarasenko, panarin, seguin, Tavares, gaudreau, Matthews etc etc while having a lot less to work with in terms of linemates than many of those guys. Dzingle is not a bonifide top 6 player on most NHL teams, nick Paul is not a blue chip prospect, I'll let you call Logan brown a blue chipper because where he was drafted only a year ago, and a first and third from a playoff team is a 15-31st and a 77th-93rd pick. Get real.

Unless you're calling 24 year old dzingle the blue chip prospect, and n that case, nazem kadri is a leafs blue chip prospect too.

26 Jul 2017 13:37:10
Gourde, Howden, Erne, 1st 2018, 3rd 2019 for Karlsson. Karlsson can play 3rd pair behind Stralman and Girardi. Sound good?


19.) 26 Jul 2017
26 Jul 2017 15:45:47
If you don't know why Eichel has just as much maybe more value to their team than guys like Driasitl, Ekblad, Murray, even Laine and Mathews, then there's no point in even trying to explain to you.


20.) 26 Jul 2017
26 Jul 2017 17:02:52
Karlsson for Eichel.


21.) 26 Jul 2017

You would need chabot and white included to even get buffalo to answer the phone and your still gunna add to that for eichel.

Eichel lead the NHL in shots per game by a land slide. He will do a lot better next season.

I am using single as 1 of the blue chippers with brown considering his numbers were up there with Hoffman and stone and most of that was based on his speed alone. He's 24 years old and can still improve his puck control and become deadly.


Eichel has yet to play a full season as he's injured half the time and in the time he has been there he's been benched a couple of times and shown frustration between him and the coach. These things do factor in to trade value in real life whether fans like it or not.

I'm not by any means saying he's not extremely talented because he is but you have to look at the facts of his current situation.

And to the guy who said we'd have to add white and Chabot you're insane bro. If one of those guy were to be added brown and a 1st or dzingle and a 1st would have to be taken out but no way would they have to add both.

I agree with mike13, the conversation would have to start with Chabot and white and sens would still add.
