No one has brought up RNH yet? Nice.

Sam Reinhart is a terrible hockey player. He is a -97 over his career. Yes - the Sabres are a poor defensive team as a whole but he was a contributor to that.

Jack Eichel is career -69 however the past few seasons, he has been a lot better. He's been surrounded by players who are boat anchors at even-strength and simply rely on his ability to drive play.

The point here isn't to say that Eichel = McDavid. The point is to say that Pair Eichel with Gaudreau/Lindholm/Tkachuk and you likely have a 90-100 point player on a consistent basis.
