Montreal and also NYR seem to be trying to lowball the Sabres.
As for us, the Flames have been interested but Friedman sounds skeptical we have the pieces to do it.
The Risto return has probably emboldened Kevyn Adams in his ask. Steinberg mentioned in discussion with Logan Gordon he thinks the price will come down I don't really agree

I think Minny won’t be able to make the numbers work, and that will leave one of the teams waiting for the price to come down to land Eichel. Still think it’s Anaheim
and they won’t have to give up Zegras or Drysdale.
