Yeah, they are absolutely clueless on value and contracts, and they think Flames players are worthless.
They are completely out to lunch

The more I see these offers (the rumoured NYR/VGK ones), the more I understand why Eichel hasn't been traded.
...except to Calgary, because Treliving should clearly step up the offer a touch and bring this thing home!

When it comes to this kind of stuff those guys are just dumb. They are always way, WAY off on their trade prognostications.

Depends what he is reporting.
In this case, yes he is likely in the know.

No idea if it is true but HF says Vegas turned down that ask.

Yeah #### it. Mortgage the future and go for it. I would rather that then float around in the mess that has become. Swing away.

We can easily beat those offers.
Makes me think the health risk has kept GMs from putting a strong offer forward.
Except they have no issue paying out the nose for FAs not as good that carry as much risk. Funny where they draw their lines.
Somebody needs to get Treliving turnt then get him on the phone with Buffalo. Dude needs to nut up and take a leap, or we'll be stuck in mediocrity land for many more years.

It would actually be quite easy for Vegas to be able to fit Eichel, especially since Buffalo would surely take salary back
Tuch and Smith takes you to almost 10 on their own. Patrick's contract is surely going to not be anywhere close to expensive; he needs a show-me year more than anything. McNabb makes 2.5 and is in the last year of his deal.
You could move one of Pacioretty or Marchessualt too, since they don't have full no-trade clauses.
It might not be likely, but just because they're up against the cap now, they're not necessarily out. Fill out your lineup with the cheap filler leftover.

Come on Brad, get it done! This would be potential to be the best player to have ever played for the Flames IMO.

This is getting boring now. Hopefully this trade is done soon no matter who gets him.

I’m thinking Vegas sneaks in and gets it done. If it happens I hope Tre has a backup plan.

Pinder thinks Monahan is absolutely worthless. The 960 guys are absolutely awful when it comes to evaluating the worth of Flames player.

If Eichel was a one-man show, it didn't help the Sabres much. We could easily trade for him and still be stuck in the muck.
