I’m into it, and don’t see it as an overpayment.
Pelletier + Zary + 1st + 1st + Monahan + Lucic for Eichel + Eakins (50% retained).
Clears 11.625M in cap-space off this year and next while only subtracting 4th line players, while bringing in Eakins to help keep the team going while Eichel is out.
I think Eichel is worth four firsts IF it includes correcting the cap structure of the team.
Remember back in 2013 - we offered three 1sts to move to 1st overall for Mackinnon. If 4 first round picks gets us Eichel? Do it. Do it. We also have the extra 2nd this year from the Bennett deal to help off-set this years lack of a 1st.
