Were Murray's Comments Enough to Encourage Eichel to Stay in College for a While?

[Ginger Vitis]

“It’s hard to talk about playing for a team next year when the draft hasn’t happened,” Eichel said of the Sabres via conference call. “A lot of things can happen on draft day. Nothing is set in stone right now, but obviously it would be really nice to play there. There’s so much tradition there, and it’s a great hockey city.”

Is there a better source than that lol Thanks for ruining Spikes day

You guys thinking a hockey player drafted #2 with #2 money will go back to college is crazy.

The money will still be there the following year if he were to go back to college for another year.

Tim Murray embarrassed himself and the organization with that press conference.

He dismantled the team.

He blamed Ted Nolan for their failure.

Now he's whining about the draft "process" Saying he feels bad for the fans...LOL

It's seems it's always the other guys fault with him, He's just a vic-TIM.

I said it before, Sabres will be a good team eventually, But Murray will not be the teams current GM when it happens.

Aren't you worried about your Rangers? Penguins will take the next 3....Crosby is heating up! But keep stalking this site, and make your childish comments. Or, just go hang out with you Boston bruin loser fan Lemon/Canadian!

I don't think he's going back to college. There's millions on the table. Murray just needs to stfu.

[coastal]

and if he does go back to college... Murray's behavior will factor into the decision.

people want to be more than an analytic. They inherently desire to be where they're appreciated. Now I realize professional sports is a put up or shut up proposition, but some really good hockey people who aren't named Tim Murray are counseling him to get that extra year in college.

TM handling things the way he did, does nothing counter weight that.

Douche nozzle can wait and lose the lottery again next year.

I agree, he could wait until next year and be #1 for even more money.

Judging by the video of him saying that he was coming for Buffalo before pounding a beer, I don't think he's refusing to go to Buffalo.

McDavid is likely to pull a Lindros or Eli, judging by his reaction. But i doubt that even happens.

No one is saying that Eichel is refusing to go to Buffalo.

Just that he may delay coming for a year or two to stay in college to win a championship or two rather than coming to a very weak Sabres line up during that same time period.

[JATMtheJATM]

After all, he is only a freshman and may want to go back to win that championship that alluded him this year.

You have to think BU has a pretty good shot at it next year with Eichel returning.

Perhaps Eichel and his parents value his education more than going somewhere where the imbecile of a GM does not make you feel completely welcome.

No eichel has already said he looks forward to showing murray what he has. He may stay in school another year, but that was obvious for a while a now.

[SpikedLemonade]

ONLY an absolute blind homer would defend Murray's behavior throughout this.

At last year's draft, last night, every time he opens his socially inept mouth he is an embarrassment to Sabres fans.

He should be nothing more than a high level scout.

[coastal]

He's a POS

time to put this to rest

[SpikedLemonade]

Look at that face.

Bowels completely clamped down on an immobile feces.

[JATMtheJATM]

Ironically, the Bruins 1st round pick this past year David Pastnack stuck with team this year whereas the Sabres #2 overall pick went back to the minors.

Do you start drinking the moment you awake?

Hopefully, as pastrenak matures, he doesnt broadcast his affinity for hookers on social media.

Gee, I didn't know that Kootenay was "the minors". Kootenay is in the WESTERN HOCKEY LEAGUE. That is a major junior league. NOT a minor league.

Are you on drugs, or is this your natural, moronic self? Methinks you need to worry more about the team in YOUR backyard and less about OURS. You have no GM. You may soon have no head coach. You're looking at quite a bit of roster turnover. I'd bet that Tyler Seguin trade is one you'd like to have a redo on.

Spiked knows players get sent back to juniors if they aren't ready. It's one of his trolling points. He doesn't care why it happened, just that it happened and can fill in the blanks as he sees fit. We all know why sam was sent back and it proved to be a good decision. If spiked wants to angle it a different way so be it.

BINGO. If memory serves, I think they wanted Reinhart to not only add on some weight, but improve other facets of his game. And he seems to have done that.
