That’s backward thinking. You shouldn’t be making trades to hurt or help other teams. You should make them because they make your own team better.

There is no trading Eichel and getting better.
Also, if you wouldn't miss those pieces, that should tell you something about how little they'd do to backfill the gaping chasm you'd be creating on Buffalo's roster.

If Buffalo trades Eichel, playoffs is out of the question for the next few years. If you trade Eichel, you are getting futures. Instant impact of the group of players acquired is a secondary concern, in my opinion.

you have no idea how ridiculous it sounds saying instant impact players are secondary to futures...

there is no backwards thinking, if the package you are offering doesn’t hurt, it speaks to its value

If you want instant impact instead that hurts us more, we can give that, as well. You can have Strome and Buchnevich in place of Chytil and Kakko. Are you happy now?

This is why HF posters don't run NHL teams.
