The case against the New York Rangers trading for Jack Eichel

The trade deadline has come and gone and for the second year in a row the Rangers opted to remain quiet. Obviously it came as no shock as the conversation continues to be focused on this summer. It’s no secret the Rangers are ‘kicking tires”, “mulling options” and whatever other insider term you want to use, on Jack Eichel. But to be honest, it’s a bad idea.

The Sabres appear to have a culture issue, a culture of perpetual losing as they enter their tenth straight season without a playoff berth. Players that have left the team talk like they are being looked after by Ben Stiller in Happy Gilmore.
