Dreger: Earlier this week trade talks heated up with the Sabres, but now seem to have cooled down a little bit. But that can change with one simple phone call. Hope is a trade is made before grievance is made and Eichel can have his surgery early next week.
Dreger doesn't name any team, but the user Volica from HF says this is consistent with what he heard from his source about the Flames coming "####ing close" earlier this week and Buffalo wanting to avoid grievance.
