NHL Rumors: Buffalo Sabres checked back with interested teams on Jack Eichel

Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman is reporting that the Sabres met with Jack Eichel’s new representatives led by Pat Brisson. He termed it an “introductory meeting” as both sides try to keep this as quiet as possible.

The last time Eichel met with Sabres was with his previous agents Peter Fish and Peter Donatelli around August 18. The meeting was to plead their case to the NHL and NHLPA.

“The League was there, the Player’s Association, Eichel, and the Sabres,” Friedman said. “I’m not sure if the doctors were there in person or via Zoom, and everyone put their cards on the table…there was no resolution.
