Description

Lot of whatifs I'm this post - based on some conversations from TSN 1200 discussing Brown status. They speculated about Debrincat being on the block and Kane potentially wanting out (they didn't suggest they could both come here).

Issues are obvious with several NMCs, contracts for Kane and Jones taking them past their primes in high payouts.

I just wondered if this could work and what it might look like. I was surprised that there is still a lot of room in 2 seasons ($34M) to signed RFAs, key players.

I doubt Ottawa would be willing to spend this much next season and take on two risky contracts in Kane and Seth Jones - but was fun considering it.

Yes, likely an underpay for these three Hawks. Relax - we aren't actual GMs.

Chicago does not see the Seth contract as a dump so you'd have to pay up for him as well

Chicago 100% passes, All 3 would cost far more than what you're offering here.

Besides both Kane and Jones don't waive for Ottawa. All Canadian teams are on Seth Jones no trade list.

Yeah, we aren't real GM's. But you could at least try a little bit. That is a horrific trade for CHI. lol

Bro why would the Hawks ever do this, Jones is a top 20-30 d man imo and can get better, no reason to trade him for Matt Murray, not close to enough for Kane either who is a guranteed ppg player, and hawks might want a prospect added like Pinto for the cat.
