Sportsnet: Jack Eichel‘s agent Peter Fish in a text message about Eichel’s status with the Buffalo Sabres.
“We are communicating with the team and are heading toward a resolution.”
On Wednesday they had a long conversation with Sabres GM Kevyn Adams. The Sabres position involving the surgery Eichel wants hasn’t changed.
The Sabres could move on from Eichel, Sam Reinhart and Rasmus Ristolainen this offseason. Adams:
“It’s bigger than focusing and singling out people. I think the point of saying that is we need to establish a culture here of people on the ice, staff across the organization that are proud, that this is something really special,” he said.
