Yeah as a Hawks fan, I like the value, its their, but I never would trade Kane out of Chicago just because of how much he means to the city. I don't think either GM would willingly make this trade, which usually means its fair. But as stated above, the Avs do not presently need a right wing such as Kane. I honestly think if they were to make a blockbuster type of trade it would be for a center, so if you were to fit the theme of this ACGM, Toews would be the target instead of Kane. In that case I think the value would probably drop off to Byram and a 1st just because he is probably half the value of Kane in my opinion
I dont think the Avs need to target a C either....Kadri is on pace for something like 65-70 points last time I checked. They have been lights out offensively while still being comedically plagued with Injuries.
The team is doing what is doing with Injuries to Rantanen, Landeskog, Wilson, Jost, Calvert, Burakovsky, Bellemare, Johnson, Zadorov, Grubauer, Francouz...at anytime there has been like 3 or 4 of those guys out of the lineup, and at one time they had 7 guys out.
They stay healthy going into the playoffs, I think all they really need is just add some depth wingers and dmen, no need to force any blockbuster to go for it. They are good now and haven't been able to play with 90% healthy line up yet
and of Course hawks fans would like the value, its way over blown for 31 year old players entering the end of the careers who only have 4 more years left on their contract., getting 2 1st round picks and 2 potential cornerstone prospects, thats just as over valued as you can get for their age. Its no dirsprect to them as players, despite how good they are, you don't get sort of return on players at that age and control left.
