Aleksander Barkov vs. Jack Eichel: Who would be the better acquisition?

The talk of Rangerstown has been all about the kid from Beantown, Jack Eichel of the Sabres. The star center looks more and more like he is going to want out of the mess that’s going on in Buffalo. It’s understandable why Rangers fans are dreaming of Eichel in blue. He has 350 points in 368 career games (139 goals, 211 assists) and has been one of the top centers in the NHL since he arrived during the 2015-16 NHL season. He is a dream acquisition for a team who has depth at seemingly every position except center.
