I’m very in favor of adding a talent like Eichel. But if the medical information they’re passing along in this statement is an indication of their general mindset, this guy may be out to lunch.

Obviously it's just simply reading into a tweet, but to me, it screams much more of trying to add pressure to get a deal done and when it comes to light that indeed he can't go for the start of the season, they'll say look, we mentioned "medical clearance."
Thanks for the insight though.
