Yeah, I don't get it either. I don't doubt that they're in on Eichel and I think they will try to get him, but I really don't understand what the appeal is to them. They're in the early years of a rebuild and by all accounts it's going quite well for them.
The Ducks would be better off to stay the course. Trying to accelerate a rebuild like this usually turns out poorly.
Calgary probably shouldn't be in on him either. I think the smart move is to rebuild here. But they've clearly indicated that's not the direction they want to go with the Coleman signing so if they're not going to rebuild I'd much rather they go all out. At least they could say they tried.
