That’ll show him for not wanting to fuse vertebrae in his spine at 24 years old….
What a selfish SOB eh?

Yeah this is absolutely insane.
The Buffalo Sabres are the worst run organization in the league. Why anyone would sign a contract with them going forward is beyond me.

It would suck for Eichel but it would be great if he could find a way to terminate his contract with them and become a UFA. He could sign with any team he wants and that team would a lot stronger than a team that has to give up assets for him. He wouldn't get the contract he has now though so that's a huge gamble.

Eichel value is sinking
Maybe they’d trade him for Johnny’s UFA right

The fact Adam’s thinks the trade value right now is a healthy Eichel is insane. But I guess he can say whatever he wants in the media.

I don't understand why this surgery is such a sticking point for the Sabres, when they are going to trade him anyway

Yeah that's like being unemployed for 5 years then applying for a loan and telling them to base your salary as an employed person.

So, at what point does Eichel end up suing the Sabres?

At no point. He would have 0 chance of winning.

On what grounds? I suppose he could ask for an arbitrator to determine the issue of who gets to decide what surgery he gets but my understanding is that there isn't much debate on that.

The part where they are valuing him as a healthy Eichel is just insane to me. He isn't.
Get him healthy and then it makes sense or factor in the injury risk factor and move on.

There has to be something there, with their refusal to allow him to get the surgery he wants. I understand that his contract states that the team has final say on his surgery but we're at the point where it feels personal.

Oh my god! What shocking news! Hard to believe that Eichel would fail his physical, would refuse the recommended medical procedure, and the Sabres take action to remove him from a leadership role with the hockey club. In other shocking news, the sky is blue and water is wet.

Sabres treat Eichel as unhealthy, uncooperative, and unfit for captaincy.
But they still expect other teams to pay full value for him.
