Exactly. Trading Gibson only makes sense if the ducks are trying to bottom out in a rebuild since a good goalie can steal games during the season - hurting your chances at a high pick. And if the ducks are acquiring eichel… they would have to include their first round pick. So Gibson for eichel does not make sense for the ducks. Also, Buffalo is going after finishing dead last this season… Gibson is probably the worst player to trade for if you want to do that.
