your worst one yet. We are giving up the 3 best assets in the trade, yet somehow adding salary,

Brutal. No Stars

Latest rumor #1.

#2 What 3 assets are you referring to?

#3 Crawford, a top 5 goalie in the league, is a better asset then anything else in that trade.

Ristolainen, O'Reilly and the 1st pick of the 2nd round are more valuable than anything you are sending our way. Saad has a 6 million AAV and regressed badly. Crawford has a 6 million AAV, is a goalie and had a debilitating injury. Anisimov is old, slow and has a bloated salary, murphy is not worth much at all.

Goalie is the most important position on the ice. Nobody will argue that. Crawford has consistently performed as a top 10 goalie and top 5 more recently beyond a questionable defense. You really think ROR is more valuable then Crawford? Suggesting a #2 pick is more valuable then Crawford is laughable at best....probably your worst comment yet among a lot of bad one's you historically make.

It’s universally accepted that’s G is the most replaceable position in the sport. You’re unreal hahaha.

LMAO a top 5 goalie is universally known is the most valuable guy on the ice. A top 5 goalie can take an average team around him to the playoffs...fact. A 2nd line Center, ROR, can't with a bunch of average players around him. Or a 1st line D can't either.

There is so much fluctuation in goaltender performance year to year it’s by far the least valuable position. You’re on crack. Two years ago Crawford and Lehner had the same sv pct and now one isn’t getting a QO and the other supposedly one of the most valuable players in the league? Good job bud, maybe next time.

I don't think anyone trades the 1st pick of the 2nd round for a goalie. I certainly hope my team doesn't. Let alone the fact that no one knows if he is healthy.

No way buffalo does that trade.

No way man

Go look at Crawford's stats first of all. Then look at Lundquist and wonder why he was getting $11M a year prior to anyone else making that money in the league historically. You keep believing goalies are the least valuable position just don't say that to any pro coach or player because they'll laugh their face off at you.

Buffalo has enough injury problems. Crawford gets you Bogosian.

Ovechkin was making 9M AAV 6 years before Lundqvist got his deal lmao.

Oh and #1 centers make more than Goalies. I can’t believe I’m having this argument. Oh well I’m done, have a good day!

And Lundquist was the highest plaid player at the time he got his deal...not just goalies, all players.

Yeah, I agree, can't believe I'm having this conversation with anyone who knows the game and it's obvious you've never played the game at a higher level to understand that goalies ARE NOT the least important player on the ice.

Keep telling yourself that bud.

Don't need to tell myself anything, from experience I know that a top 5 goalie is worth more then almost anyone on the ice and any professional would agree.

Talk about someone that is COMPLETELY lost. These trades make little to no sense but holy cow I never thought I'd hear someone say something like this.

Saad is 25 yrs old in his prime....And 20 times the player Ryan Oreiley is get real

To be fair, Crawford might not be enough for the first pick in the second round right now because of his health. No one knows anything about his health, which is scary. With that said, he is a top five goal in the world, and I don't think the Hawks should trade him if he's healthy. I'd be interested in trying to buy low on him if I'm another team, but I wouldn't be willing to pay full price, hence why I think the Hawks are best keeping him and hoping for the best
