Like Bergeron, Marchand and Krejci are retiring tomorrow. Then Bruins become futile and Eichel is still crying. Actually I don't know if he is crying now.
I get that, but at some point if Eichel asks for a trade his value in a trade goes down some, other teams know the Sabres are up against a wall and if he only wanted Boston then his trade value is really lowered. I am not saying any of that would happen, but if it did there is no way he would get back what Haggs was suggesting.
He could refuse to go someplace though, we have seen that happen a few times and deals then get nixed, like Kadri did recently.As of right now he has no say in where he gets traded if he's traded. Even if he demands a trade now, every team is calling for a price and it only takes 2 in order to have a bidding more.

Man I'd sure like to cash a $7.5 million signing bonus this summer!
But for Eichel my opinion is that you give up whatever you have to with the exception of Pastrnak and McAvoy. Then you fix what you have to after.
After the O'Reilly fiasco (cost Bruins a Cup IMO) I
can't see Buffalo trading Eichel for anything
not involving a proven elite player such as
Pastrnak.
True, I guess best case scenario is he only wants to come to Boston at some point.Kadri had a 10 team NTC. Eichel has nothing like that for another 2 years.
The Buffalo Sabres didn’t fire their GM and majority of personnel to trade their 23-year-old star player the following season.

Pegula has been firing coaches, GM's and other personnel since he bought the team. Who knows what he's going to do next...

Those trades don’t happen. Jones for Johansen was a rare case when both teams had a need and both players were available. Would probably have to go to Hossa/Heatley to find one similar to Pasta/Eichel. Teams also never trade good chunks off their roster for one player. If Eichel is traded history says it will be for a package of picks, prospects and probably one roster player.Because to land Eichel you're either trading a player of equal value or you're trading a good chunk of your roster. The last big one for one that I recall was Seth Jones for Ryan Johansen
A move like David Krejci, Jake DeBrusk, John Moore and Oskar Steen for Jack Eichel

Really ???A move like David Krejci, Jake DeBrusk, John Moore and Oskar Steen for Jack Eichel
Might have to tell Krejci he’s signing a contract with a raise attached to it.Really ???

you forgot..... “would make the hockey world laugh” at the end of that sentence.
Feel like it Would take more like McAvoy, Debrusk, Studnicka, a #1 to even start that conversation.
I would absolutely hate to see McAvoy go, but for Eichel I may do it, if we could then trade Krejci for some help on D after losing McAvoyThe only deal to be made would be:
Mcavoy for Eichel
Bruins would have a superstar centre for the next decade. How many years does Bergeron have? The future down the middle would be incredible.
Eichel
Studnicka
Coyle

This is even worse than the original proposal.
