John Vogl of the Buffalo News: Jack Eichel’s figures to make between $8 million and $10 million on his next contract extension. What the value is between those two numbers is the tricky part. Buffalo Sabres GM Jason Botterill:
“Both parties would really like to get a deal done,” Botterill said Monday night. “Do we have a deal done? No, not yet, but we continue to be very cordial in our discussions.
“It has to be a situation where both groups are very comfortable with where the number’s at and where the term is at and are excited about continuing this relationship.
