In the last 5 games Gus has 3 goals. His value is increasing back to where it was despite a slow start to the season for him.
Caggs is worth more then a 5th. He's versatile and able to play up and down the lineup, that kind of player is worth a lot more then a 5th at the TDL. He's a better version of Hartman who got a 1st. Caggs is at least a 3rd.
Maatta or De Haan needs to go. The Hawks are too deep with defensive prospects next year and Holm, McCoshen both look really good in Rockford not to mention Gilbert, Mitchell, both being options next year. Koekko should also get traded, highly doubt we re-sign him.
With the bonuses this year, the Hawks are going to need to move pieces besides low cap hits like Gus and Caggs.
