Why would he agree to this?

That bertuzzi contract is insane

Same with Montour, the guy has had 1 great season which double his next closest output offensively.

If Tavaras agrees to waive, the Hawks probably accept. But Tavaras will be playing 2C in Chicago. He won't get bought out.

Chicago would literally just convince him to play for us. Complementary Blackhawks Jammie’s and bedsheets included.

I get having him at center, that makes a lot of sense, but what about having him on Bedards wing…

Sure, that would work if JT can play on the wing. Bot sure he ever has. Although having him center a line w/ Reichel on LW and maybe Nazar (if he signs) on RW would make for a pretty good top 6 next season.

I mean bias aside he is still a good player. Plus can never have to many mentors for Bedard

I wonder if getting traded for FC was part of his childhood dream

Tavares has played wing for a couple short stretches with the Leafs, but always finds himself back at centre.

His finishing ability has undeniably regressed, but he's still a monster along the boards who elevates the players around him.
