Islanders management should look for Jack Eichel, who just finished his second season in the NHL. He has one more season to go on his entry level contract. Buffalo is looking to lock down this young superstar, and so far all evidence indicates Eichel is willing to stay.
I hate to play the same game of what if that we’ve suffered from other team’s fans who’ve dreamed of stealing Tavares from our ranks, but darn it if it isn’t kind of fun. So, let’s talk hypothetically for a moment.
Eichel is a super talent. He just put up 57 points in 61 games.
