ROC Sabres Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Surprised no video link on sabres.com. Quote
WildCard Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Panicking a little that I haven't found a link yet Quote
Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Very short intro by JB; "introduced" Jack Eichel to applause. It is on WGR and MSG. It was supposed to be on the Sabres facebook page as well but I'm not seeing it. "I have so much to offer and so much to prove...." Quote

Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Harrington: Give us an idea of the timetable of everything that developed yesterday... Eichel: Both sides wanted to get it done, I wanted to be in Buffalo, bunch of stuff that doesn't answer the question. Was prepared to play without a new Kx. Quote

Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Wawrow: You want to be seen and heard on and off the ice; does this contract reinforce that? Eichel: Yes, absolutely; that was my goal coming into camp, to be the guy people can rely on....wants to take on more responsibility...new Kx maximizes that [feeling]...might be more pressure now.

Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Sheppard: Do you feel this is an opportunity to step up in the locker room and in the city and one day wear the C... Eichel: Bunch of stuff about gaining confidence and respect; doesn't really address the C question. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Buffalo SabresVerified account @BuffaloSabres now7 seconds ago More Jack Eichel: "I want to take on more responsibility. Be the best player I can & be the best teammate." WATCH LIVE http://bufsabres.co/fblive Quote
Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Hamilton: Does taking this Kx now help the team down the road with [cap] flexibility Eichel: Defers to JB and his agent but states that the goal is to have a great team over the years. Quote
josie Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Yeah they're tip-toeing around the big C question. Get the feeling that's still being talked about. Quote
Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Hoppe: Repeats Harrington timeline question, to JB this time. JB: Lots of things to talk about over the whole summer, goal for both parties was to get a deal done, everyone respected each other. Compromise on both sides. (Doesn't answer the question.) Quote
Derrico Posted October 4, 2017 Author Report Posted October 4, 2017 Thanks for the updates 11! Tough getting a feed a work. Quote
Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Gleason: How much of a role did you have in your own negotiations? Did you tell [your agent] you want to be here for 8 years? Eichel: Wanted 8 years and told his agent that. For the most part, he left it up to agent and JB. Inaudible.... Eichel: It's a lot of money and I'm grateful and humbled, etc. etc. Inaudible again Eichel: This city means a lot to me and I hope I mean a lot to it as well....organization has given him every opportunity that he's wanted...wants to do something special here. Ch2: Last few days emotionally and mentally? Eichel: It's a bit overwhelming, not the Kx itself, but process is emotional. Thinking of everything you've gone through your whole life and everything your family has done for you. Quote
darksabre Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Not a lot of really great questions... Quote
Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Unknown: Can you reflect back to a year ago when it was a tougher situation (refers to ankle)? Eichel: It's been ups and downs, I can look at that adversity and .... negatively or positively ... learn a lot about yourself ... better for it ... more cliches... LeBrun: What kind of factor is the guy sitting on your left [JB]? How much did that weigh in? Eichel: I had met Mr. Botterill before, know the type of guy who is running our organization, (general platitudes)...that's the type of person you want to be here ... I want to commit to him... Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Holy poop, LeBrun is in the room. "How much of an impact did (Botterill) have on you (signing this deal)?" Quote
shrader Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Yeah they're tip-toeing around the big C question. Get the feeling that's still being talked about. It's not his decision, so I'm glad that he's smart enough to dance around that one. Quote
Eleven Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) Ch7: Any reason why you're more excited now than when you got here? Eichel: Everyone's a bit older and more experienced ... culture and team moving in great direction ... mindset of players is better every day ... mood in the room is better... excited to play hockey again. Holy poop, LeBrun is in the room. "How much of an impact did (Botterill) have on you (signing this deal)?" LeBrun's was a great question. (unknown to JB): Describe importance of center position and how Jack fits in. JB: Exactly the response you'd expect to such a stupid ###### question. Edited October 4, 2017 by Eleven Quote
