A few Flames media people trying to throw cold water on the thing.

The arguments some in the fanbase make against Eichel I respect because it comes down to the risk of the surgery and likelihood of returning to 100%, and that's a reasonable position. But the stance Wes takes is so silly and short sighted. If Brad decides they don't need Eichel anymore because of a 3 game winning streak it's a wonder he's kept his job so long being that fickle and reacting to emotional highs. Like did you not anticipate to win 3 games in a row at any point?
The other argument he makes is about "asking for a significant roster piece" making the Flames worse right now, but that ask is speculation on their part. We don't know exactly what they're asking for, but it might be too high, so we shouldn't do it. Not a fan of whatever he's doing here. Unless they have a rumor about an ask and then maybe Wes should report what he's hearing?
Another is Ryan Leslie. On his instagram story yesterday he responded to a Q about Eichel saying its unlikely, price too high, and it's too risky. But FWIW he's been cold on Eichel all along going back to the offseason
