Bit confused by this thought process?

We need the cap space more than a filler. Would rather continue to develop our own ELCs like Nylander and Kurashev for example than have Marcus' cap hit.

Interesting. So it’s going to be more of a draft pick only kind of deal?

For Maatta. I do think a pick is the best route for the Hawks....Or ELC or prospect. And they should be actively seeking out this kind of return. It might not be the best route for the other team. I can fully understand that.
