And 1 NHL team that could have had him without giving up a single asset.
Crazy. Boston could've had Seguin right now. Why didn't they just keep him?

Imagine a scenario as you suggest. Trade is agreed to. Acquiring team now gets access to Jacks imaging. They do new imaging and exam. They say Jack needs surgery and the trade collapses. What value does Jack have aftervthat?Only after a trade goes through. Every trade in the NHL is contingent on the players involved passing a physical with their new team. Eichel isn't getting examined by another team's doctor until after the trade goes through.

I saw Jack Eichel at a grocery store in Lowell yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him about the trade or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

As if Jack would ever be caught dead in Lowell. Other than that everything else about this is believable.I saw Jack Eichel at a grocery store in Lowell yesterday.

So yeah... thanks for making my exact point.
Maybe the Rangers did this already and that’s why Brooks suggested Eichel needs the neck surgery? He has inside information from within the Rangers?Straw man argument...
No one is saying that they should be sent to every team. But it is prudent to send them to any potential suitor that has both shown interest, and has the assets that Buffalo is seeking. If a potential trade can happen, then it makes sense to showcase the value that he has and eliminate any/all concerns on his neck injury.

Agreed. Thank god they fired that GM. For making that dumb mistake.Why did they trade him? Was there a reason? Kind of a dumb organization.

But thanks for continuing to agree with me and bolster my point.
Btw Habs upped their offer for eichel and are awaiting medical reports.

My point was that in order to get full value the Sabres need to keep Eichel until he proves he can pace for 95 points again.huh? Because you saw him skating on some instagram video? ... sigh...
It's pretty obvious Buffalo doesn't want him to have his preferred surgery because they are afraid he wont 100% recover.
Your point does not remain the same, the longer he needs surgery but does not receive surgery, the more his value falls.
Cool story bro... but in the end, you take the best value you can get. Right now only Buffalo and their fans believe he has the value that they are demanding.
It's only a lowball offer if its not market value. It's pretty clear that the market has made Eichel's value clear.
If he goes LTIR this season it becomes harder to trade him. So yeah... there is harm there. Pushing his recovery timeline down the road is harmful to both him and his potential trade partners.
What was the reason though? I thought Boston was a smart organization? They got rid of Joe Thornton too? Why did they do that?

If you have a point just go ahead and make it.
BOS stupidly thought a 21 year old kid wasn't taking the job seriously enough. Instead of working with him to help him figure it out they traded him and made a colossal mistake that likely cost them another Cup.
Joe Thornton was deemed a talented player but "not a good leader" (sound familiar too you at all)? And he was coming off an injury (again sound familiar) that he said caused him to not play as well in the playoffs as they'd like while they thought it wasn't as bad and he should've performed better (echoes... echoes... well except for playoffs since that ain't a thing in BUF). Thus they made a colossal mistake that likely cost them a Cup.
Yes you have made a tremendous point. Teams trade players for stupid reasons and regret it. That's exactly my point and your questions have made it even better than I could have. Thanks.
But I'm glad you agree that Adams is posing with his "We'll just keep Jack!" stance since you seem to be convinced they have a reason to trade him and will do so
Not since the Kris Letang erotica have I been this thoroughly entertained.
