Outside the box....I like it.

Only substantial return is the 1st, which would be a late round pick. If CHI wanted Kadri, I'd assume Teravainen had to be in the deal.

I don't think the Hawks would entertain putting Teravainen in this trade. It's mixed signals. What reason should the Hawks get an expiring contract if you're trading away the players you want to resign? I don't see them resigning Kadri to a long term deal. I know he's been asked to do a lot recently...No JVR right now and he's #1 Center, but his play kinda reflects it too. He's not really having a great year and his best play was when he wasn't on the top line a few years back. BY NO MEANS am I trying to say he's bad, but Teuvo and a 1st means a lot to the Blackhawks even if other organizations don't agree.

His numbers don't reflect his play this year. If his shooting percentage is anywhere near his career average he's on a 55-60 point pace. Plus he's been playing with third liners (Komarov, Grabner) for most of the season. Bozak plays with JVR. If the Leafs didn't get at least Teuvo and a 1st I would be pissed. Plus if you're throwing in Bickell the price goes up considerably. I don't see it making any sense for Chicago to deal for Kadri though.

Jarrett18 - Yeah I had that last sentence originally too...ultimately I had a novel, but for the most part agree. Bickell clouds the trade for sure.
