If the Flames are for real this season, it'll be good for the club to see Vegas lose a handful of assets and get back a player who probably won't play this year (maybe playoffs).
Another thought I had regarding the Sabres trade leverage, their stance is basically if Eichel gets the surgery he wants, he'll no longer be an effective player. But Eichel won't join any team that won't let him get said surgery. That tells me that whatever trade it is will have a lot of conditionals.
