Eberle hasn’t scored in 11 games. He has just one in the last 18 and has scored in only three of Edmonton’s last 35 games.
That’s a wicked slump for somebody who’s usually good for 25, but it’s not just the lack of finish that prompted the demotion (Patrick Maroon and Leon Draisaitl will flank McDavid in Boston).

Curious to see what his value would be. His only value as an NHL player is as a scorer as without the puck he's useless. In the right situation he could be a 60 point player but in most situations he's going to be the same frustrating player he is for the Oilers.
