The risk of not making a move includes the strong potential that players like Gaudreau get disillusioned with the team management and decide they really want to test Free agency. Or Tkachuk just taking his QO to enable the same next year. Going all in tells those guys we're serious about winning, and we're brining in a national team buddy of theirs to make it happen.
Too many armchair doctors in here thinking there's huge risk he never plays again. I rate that (as knowingly as your ratings) at a .5% chance of happening. Most likely Eichel gets the best medical care possible for his condition anywhere in the world and comes out just as good as previously.
