You can have Raymond too, just cuz.
I'm actually not a fan of Raymond but you came here and asked us what would be a fair offer. I gave you what I think is a fair offer.
You seem to think it's ridiculous but the asking price for Eichel is apparently at least 4 assets that is the equivalent of a 1st round pick. For UFA aged star players the asking price is often a young roster player + top prospect + 1st round pick (i.e. 3 assets). I'm not trying to be unreasonable here. You can't expect the Canucks to part with Petey without an overpay.
Petey is very much the equivalent of Eichel without the neck issue. You can also likely be able to sign him for a better deal than what's remaining on Eichel's contract (5 years at $10M per - Eichel also has an NMC that kicks in next year).
I like Larkin but he's not a 1st line C. I also really liked Seider at the draft but c'mmon he's a 1st pairing shutdown Dman at best and more likely a 2nd pairing defensive Dman. I liked Edvinsson too but he's hardly a sure thing. So the Canucks could easily end up with a 2nd line C + #4 defensive Dman + bust + 1st round pick in this deal.
