Jack Eichel Watch

[Ginger Vitis]

This watch is a bit overdue as Eichels chances of being a Sabre are 80% so how can we not track him as his college season goes on

A this point Eichels draft stock is.. Solidly in the Number 2 spot..Compared to 4 months ago Connor McDavid has pulled away from Eichel for the Number 1 spot but Eichel is still ahead of Hanifan. Last night Eichels BU team played Hanifans BC team a and American scout who I respect thought Eichel was definitely the best player on the ice.. In the big showdown agasint Boston College Eichel had 1 goal and should have had 2 assists as his linemate missed 2 wide open nets on 2 great setups from Eichel

It is kinda unfair to compare Eichel to McDavid so as a comparison where would have Eichel gone in previous years

2014..Eichel definetly goes No.1
2013.. Mackinnon goes No.1 but it is close
2012.Eichel goes No.1
2011..Eichel definitely goes No.1
2010..Eichel goes No.1 over Hall but it is not a slam dunk..
2009..Tavares goes No.1 and Eichel goes No.2

Whatever team drafts Mcdavid I think it is at least 50/50 probably closer to 70/30 that team will win at least one cup by the time McDavid is 25.. Eichel would be harder to quantify... Patrick Kane has Jonathan Toews Eichel would need Sam Reinhart to be Toews like and/or Risto and Zad would have to get to or close to the Keith/Seabrook level

So far this season Eichel has 5 goals and 5 assists in 6 games.. At a 1.6667 PPG pace he currently has the highest PPG in the NCAA Division 1 hockey

lol that was a classic troll post made worse by the fact instead of admitting he was wrong trying to justify it by saying Boston university is still Boston..

Rumour is Mcdavid briefly considered going BU he and Eichel on the same team would have been scary

I especially liked that he can't name his own price. That pesky entry level deal thing still applies.

I love how we can't even tank right. We're salivating over the #2 player when we are the worst team in the league. lol

thats because of the rules the league has in place. plus, the number 2 player is a franchise player as well. so its fine.

but still, id rather have mcdavid.
