You also can't call a player damaged goods without having any actual clue what the damage or prognosis is.
Seguin the last two seasons before he was traded: 0.77 P/GP
Stone the last two seasons before he was traded: 1.06 P/GP
Eichel the last two seasons before he was traded: 1.08 p/GP
Even if you just take their last season, which by all accounts Eichel was bad in, he still ranked more highly than Seguin.
He's ABSOLUTELY a better player than either of the two. Neither of them have ever come close to Eichel's best season (which we're just a year removed from), let alone before they were traded.
