Would work a little better if the Flames ate some cap on the Gaudreau deal and the Sabres ate some cap on the Skinner deal.
I also suspect very similar to the Karlsson trade where there were rumors the Sens wanted teams to eat the Bobby Ryan contract that there is no way Buffalo dilutes the value of Eichel by trying to force Skinner into the trade. If they want to get true potential foundational pieces they trade Eichel on his own
