With that said, the Ducks in on Eichel feels almost 2015 Flames-esque - trading for a top player when the time hasn't come to do that yet. Giving up 4 solid futures for one player when you do not know what you have in those futures yet because your rebuild isn't finished. Eichel's prime might be wasted because guys that could've come in to establish the core are now traded away. Seems really premature.
