If you retain $2M instead than $1M, I can take Saad for a 3rd

Saad and Strome trades are laughably bad from a hawks perspective

Detroit will take both Saad and Strome for those prices w/out retention.

Saad ($1M ret) for 4th

What-his-face's head is going to explode...

Hawks are getting hosed in all of these deals.

Maatta is worth at least a 3rd rounder, or equivalent prospect. Saad (with rentention) is worth probably a 2nd and a mid-level prospect. I'd prefer to keep Strome, but given his emergence as a legitimate 2nd line center, I don't think that asking for a young-ish top-4 defenseman is unfair, maybe with Chicago throwing a pick back to even things out
