Sabres Fan in NS Posted September 9, 2017 Report Posted September 9, 2017 Jack is doing something right https://www.instagram.com/p/BVyQo-PlBdw/?hl=en&taken-by=erinbasil Why is she wearing a Penguin parka and maybe nothing else (????? :angel: ) on a hot summer's day?
WildCard Posted September 9, 2017 Author Report Posted September 9, 2017 Pretty sure he's been with her since we drafted him. Either way good for him
Drunkard Posted September 9, 2017 Report Posted September 9, 2017 (edited) whoa whoa whoa..... hold the ###### up! We gingers have souls! In fact many of us have multiple souls. We are very talented in harvesting non ginger souls This may have been the best post I've ever read on this board. heyyyyyyyyyyyyy.... don't let them make you feel bad about it. Morning beers are scientifically proven to be 30% tastier than lunch beers. Until this one. Nicely done. In fact I'm cracking a beer right now in the name of scientific research. Why is she wearing a Penguin parka and maybe nothing else (????? :angel: ) on a hot summer's day? Looks more like the Flyers to me. The girl proves nothing though. Sure, she's hot but he's young, fit, talented, already a millionaire, and already to be one 80 times over. The goofy hair and acne is easy enough to look past given his other redeeming qualities.

kas23 Posted September 9, 2017 Report Posted September 9, 2017 (edited) My man. Seems clear that, if Eichel were driving toward a value beyond $9M, he'd already be signed. I think that sentence makes sense if it had read "well beyond $10M." Maybe what seems obvious to us really isn't the case. I believe that the Sabres agree he is their future, but maybe JBott isn't ready to fire up the Brinks trucks the way GMTM would've done already. He's patient and calculating. Maybe they are offering him $8.9m and Eichel wants $9.9m. None of us know the numbers being offered. Edited September 9, 2017 by kas23

Two or less Posted September 12, 2017 Report Posted September 12, 2017 Jason Botterill was on WGR during intermission of tonights game and gave an update on Eichel - "We'll continue to talk. I have a great relationship with his agency. Jack's focusing on the season, but we'll continue to work. Bottom line is both parties really want to get a deal done. I feel very very confident that we will get a deal done in the near future." "We're trying to get a deal done now. I think both parties are very optimistic a deal can be put in place...Jack won't let this be a distraction."

Brawndo Posted September 12, 2017 Report Posted September 12, 2017 From Friedman's 31 Thoughts 11. Some players are insecure about entering the last season of their contracts. It’s clear Jack Eichel isn’t one. Even if there is no extension at the start of the season, both sides know he is going to be a Buffalo Sabre for a long time. Eichel is relaxed, very confident about what he is going to do.

WildCard Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Posted September 13, 2017 Basil? As in Basil dealerships? I believe so. It was a big joke when he got drafted because he'd been seeing her before that

WildCard Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Posted September 13, 2017 (edited) “Right before the last lockout in 2013, the Vancouver Canucks were considering putting an offer sheet on for Jamie Benn. And this is a story I worked on for a long time, trying to find out exactly what they were trying to do. I’ve never proven it, but my guesstimate is it’s this – that they were looking at a one-year deal in the $7-7.5 million range. “And what that meant is that Dallas was going to have to match it for like three years. They were simply going to have to go out and until he became an unrestricted free agent, they were going to have to match it every year. And that was going to be about three years. “At the end of the day, the Canucks didn’t do it for two reasons. No. 1, they didn’t know what the new rules were going to be in the CBA, so that was one. And the second reason was they also thought they would match it – Dallas would. And all of the sudden, you’d be looking at every guy and every guy was going to be going up. And you’re not going to make that effort unless you’re getting the player.” - Elliot Friedman TSN’s Bob McKenzie had an perfect example of that exact ‘freeze you out’ notion during a December 2016 offer sheet discussion. “Jay Greenberg had a Philadelphia Flyer book come out in the last little while here on 50 years, or whatever it was, of the Flyers,” recalled the Insider at the time. “Paul Holmgren was quoted in there as saying that he felt the chill of his peers, he believes, because he offer-sheeted Shea Weber. And that he felt his fellow relationship with his general managers after putting in the offer sheet on Shea Weber – unsuccessfully, of course, because it was matched by Nashville – that he found it more difficult to do his job. https://www.fanragsports.com/nhl/friedman-explores-mindset-surrounding-nhl-offer-sheets/ Edited September 13, 2017 by WildCard
TheAud Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Pasternak signs 6 year $40M deal. I.e. $6.6M per year. He's no Eichel of course but I feel this helps balance out some of the crazier ones like Johansen's deal in Columbus.

TheAud Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Do you mean Ryan Johansen? The very same. I was using the alternate Norwegian spelling. :doh: I thought his contract at $8M per year (I believe) was out of control for his production and potential.
LGR4GM Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Well he's on Nashville and #1 centers are going to get more than wingers.
LGR4GM Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Jack's interview today was interesting. Doesn't think he's proving anything yet and called his first 2 seasons mediocre.
IKnowPhysics Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Jack's interview today was interesting. Doesn't think he's proving anything yet and called his first 2 seasons mediocre. I think he's shown us a lot, but the team hasn't proven anything. I also think the organization has shown us a lot, but the team hasn't proven anything.
Weave Posted September 14, 2017 Report Posted September 14, 2017 Jack's interview today was interesting. Doesn't think he's proving anything yet and called his first 2 seasons mediocre. Mediocre may be overstating it, but I don't think Jack has proved anything yet either. Good on him for acknowledging it.
