I lean toward no on Goodrow. Biggest reason being that I suspect Columbus has better luck with health and bounce back enough that instead of that being a really early 2nd it is more middle of the pack. 4 years is also long time for a 30 year old in the NHL. Hawks are likely really bad next year and maybe a little better the following....but generally a waste of Goodrow for most of his remaining contract. Honestly would be surpirsed if he would wave/not list the Hawks as excluded to begin with. Lose the 7th and add a 5th or 6th I could probably be talked into yes to have some kind of vet leadership and a winger/center with some size you can run out with Bedard (as a center early to ease him into pro hockey and then as a wing)
