Friedman has said 2-3 times in the last week that the Flames are among the interested parties still in on Eichel.
Vegas, Minnesota, Anaheim and New York were the others. I believe it was said that Vegas and Minnesota have since dropped out of the running, or something along those lines. Montreal was another team that was in but dropped out.
This, along with confirmation that the Sabres want to ship him west, has led many to believe that only a couple teams including the Flames are remaining the sweepstakes, hence the Eichel fever around these parts.
