Devil Dan 56 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Hopefully Risto sucks in Philly and Ghost has a career renaissance in Arizona. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Philly giving up their 13th overall pick this year and a second-rounder in 2023 in that deal. That just seems...really really good for the Sabres. And...well...really really bad for the Flyers. Fitz might not have done much just yet, but at least he hasn't made any WTF moves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be legit beside myself if we paid this price for Risto. I mean, who knows maybe he'll be better outside of Buffalo but.. expensive gamble. Christ.

Chuck the Duck Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Hagg, the 13th overall in this draft, and a 2nd for Risto??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Eichel is the one that gives me pause. I could see the Rags getting him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see the Rags getting him If they massively overpay the way Philly just did, I'm ok with it. If I'm Buffalo, I don't make that deal without 1 of Laf or Kakko being involved (with Laf my preference by a mile).

Devilsfan118 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 If Risto sets the market, then Eichel is worth 5 first round picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is, if it had been the Flyer's first for Risto straight up, I STILL wouldn't have liked it, but I would've understood it a little more. The fact that they gave that up PLUS two other pieces...man they must really think he's got something. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilMinder Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 That is insanely bad by Philly, the 1st and second and an NHL player?! How do they even balance that in their minds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could see Fletcher at least justifying it to himself that way. "No no it's not 13th + a 2nd for a rental, we've got him for another 5 years".

Devilsfan118 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Preparing myself mentally for Eichel in a Rags sweater. Hope at least they're able to bend the Rags over backwards and gut their prospect pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SterioDesign Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 i'd 110% trade Holtz + 29th + wtv for something good. But i'd rather trade for a Dman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Well, agreed but do you think that gets it done? Especially with the Rangers sniffing around? I mean the Rangers offer has to be 16OA + Laf/Kakko/Kratsov + .... Or I guess, one would think. Maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaheim has to be looking to loose Drysdale/Zegras to make that deal happen. No way it is going down without one or both of them and the 3OA+. I don't see how 25 year old Jack Eichel puts them any closer to winning a cup than losing two of, prob top 10 or 15, young guys in the league.
