Step back from the ledge Buffalo Sabres fans, just because the Jack Eichel talks are still ongoing doesn’t mean that things are not going well.
Speaking to WROC’s Dan Fetes today, the General Manager Jason Botterill was very clear that both parties were still on the same page, that it’s taking some time to sort out the new Eichel deal because of some of the new deals that have gone down in the NHL and the player continues to prepare for the new season.
"At the end of the day we wanna get Jack signed up for max amount & term possible, he has the same belief" #Sabres GM on Eichel negotiations pic.
