I’m not trying to defend the Sabres competence here but from their perspective the Draft is the next big deadline. Now I get his injury complicates things, but that’s more for the acquiring team. At least by not playing nothing is getting worse.
For sure they may well not get what they want but IDK if four months is enough time to conclude they never will and need to lower their price. Is Eichel less valuable next off season?

Yes. That’s eichel not playing hockey for almost two years… and coming off of a serious surgery/recovery. Yikes.
