I normally don’t start these kind of threads but Eichel is a top 10 forward in the game. He is a major building block. Based on recent reports, Eichel’s time in Buffalo is likely over. Obviously we should have interest, but how much should we pay?
Thread on the trade board is seeking a top line player, 1st + 2 top prospects. I’m not sure they get that value but either way he won’t be cheap.
I pulled the Karlsson trade for reference as he was the most recent superstar I could think of that was traded.
I’m sure the trade market will be highly competitive but
my question is how much should we be willing to pay?
I ask this because from a team building perspective you still need to have some pieces to build around. Obviously Eichel won’t be cheap so what are your best offers?

Ottawa received forwards Chris Tierney and Rudolfs Balcers, defenseman Dylan DeMelo, the rights to unsigned forward Joshua Norris, a first-round pick in the 2019 NHL Draft or 2020 NHL Draft, a second-round pick in the 2019 draft, and two conditional draft picks.
