Monahan+Gaudreau+Hanifin
For
Eichel and Skinner
Pretty much works cap wise. I doubt it is what Buffalo would be after.

Sorry, but the FAN has no idea what they are talking about.
No doubt, if the Sabres could package Skinner with Eichel, they would. However, they cannot.
From their perspective, it would significantly downgrade the return.
And from the other team's perspective, you can't pay $19M for one player - there is simply no way you can build a team around that. No way.
