Description

The reason i have put Toews as a 3rd liner is to have him in a more deffensive role. I believe Toews can age really good in this league with his elite strenghts in that area. I also want Dach to have the best opportunity as possible to delivier from day 1. I don´t like the way Philly has threatend Nolan Patrick and wants Blackhawks to give him a top line role.

But It wouldn´t schock me to be honest if Strome gets traded and replaced by Dach. But if Dach is a a top prospect, Hawks center depht would be among the best in the league if Strome stays.

In a perfect world, Crawford is healthy and will take year-to-year contract with a low CAP.
If Gus have another good year, i can´t see him resign with the Hawks. He´ll be a rental this year.

In this scenario, Kubalik is a hit and will be resigned. Nylander has a good year (one in a million) and has chemistry with Cat and Strome. The 2 last LW spots are up for grabs. Hawks have some other intresting guys in the pipe. Can definitely see one of the D-man traded away for a spot to Mitchell.

Anisimov will probably be shiped in the upcomming days and Saad gets traded next year to free some CAP.

Dach needs another year in junior, or your looking at another strome or Patrick like you referenced, I still think Patrick is going to break through this year, he’s a guy a avg stat sheet doesn’t do justice, but we will see with 7 million Hayes, needs to look good for management

That is a pretty sweet deal for Ottawa but, while I'm sure another team would jump on it, Melnyk will reach the cap floor once they sign Colin White and he isn't likely to spend a penny more - especially if it just serves to improves the team SHORT TERM which only makes it less likely they get a top 3 pick next season. Maybe one of them to Winnipeg and one to New Jersey? You'd still clear the cap space and get two late round picks from it...

Terrible trade and Dach belongs on the 3rd until he proves himself.
