This NHL team can teach Arizona Cardinals ownership some lessons
By Sion Fawkes
What about Kyler Murray?
The more I watch Murray play, the more convinced I am that he is the Arizona Cardinals version of Jack Eichel. Eichel’s relationship with the Sabres soured over the years and they shipped him off to the Vegas Golden Knights as potentially the team’s final puzzle piece to win the Stanley Cup.
Like Murray, Eichel never did much in terms of winning games with the Sabres. While Murray managed to take the Cardinals further than Eichel took the Sabres, the former number one and number two overall picks, respectively, put up pretty numbers, but never carried their respective teams the way management expected them to.
Overall, like Hopkins, a Kyler Murray trade would generate even more draft capital, and a team like the Detroit Lions, for example, could potentially bite if the Arizona Cardinals were to place Murray on the trading block. The Houston Texans could be another buyer, and I could even see a team with talent, but lacking a quarterback, like the Indianapolis Colts, also taking the bait, regardless of the size of Murray’s contract.
