Punting on the season Unfair Trades

Created by: Kyle_Davidson
Team: 2019-20 Chicago Blackhawks
Initial Creation Date: Dec. 11, 2019
Published: Dec. 11, 2019
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I didn't put much thought into trade logistics, but its time to call the season. We have both of our top LHD out on an already bad defense. Let the kids play. Have Bowman blame the season on injuries, and hope to get a good forward prospect in the draft.
Trades
1.
CHI
  1. 2020 1st round pick (TOR)
  2. 2020 3rd round pick (NYR)
Additional Details:
I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH #FREELEHNER

*pick is the sooner of the two Carolina owns.
CAR
  1. Lehner, Robin ($2,500,000 retained)
Additional Details:
I literally think there is no convincing that can be done to get Lehner signed. That is why the first move is trading him, to signify how terrible the hawks have been playing, and to show the players that their poor play is unacceptable and will be treated accordingly.
2.
CHI
  1. Alzner, Karl
  2. 2020 2nd round pick (CHI)
  3. 2021 3rd round pick (CHI)
MTL
  1. Gustafsson, Erik
Additional Details:
2021 3rd round pick upgrades to a first if Gus resigns. Expensive, probably... but we are taking back Alzner for three years.

Montreal says yes and then dont re-sign Gus. Half a year of Gus and taking Alzner from them for a 2nd and 3rd. Sign them up

Montreal rejects. We have no interest in acquiring a rental and we aren't trading 1st round picks.

Just make the trade dont re-sign him. All you lose is a 2nd and 3rd and you keep Gus for half a year while getting rid of 3 years of Alzner. That's a steal

I know this post is about the Hawks and not the Canes, but what is the goalie situation if Lehner comes? You carry 3? You bury Reimer just when he’s starting to play well? Trade fan favorite Mrazek?

I’m not sure I have a great opinion on this, but seems like a more complicated situation than what we have now.

BTW - ? pour one out for De Haan. Loved that guy, he just might never get past his shoulder issues. That sucks...

The Canes and Canadiens trades are baaaaad for us. If we're going to tank, at least get good value from our assets.

Shaw's contract is too big and has too much term. I'd do Johnsson and Ceci and a 2nd next summer for Crawford and Murphy, with half salary on Crawford though.

I don't think that CAR trade is bad. I'd do it as a Hawks fan. Need to give assets to get assets.

Taking on Alzner is ROUGH. I don't want that contract. I would prefer lower picks and sending Zach Smith. MTL has plenty of cap room next year.

I'm curious what it would take for TOR to just drop their protection on the 1st.

Murphy is like the only good thing we have going on defense. He is untouchable for all intents and purposes.

The Leafs are absolutely not going to finish outside of the playoffs.

He shouldn't be, you should move everyone over the age of 27 for futures. Rebuild again. You guys have some good young pieces and a two year bottom out should give you all you need to come back in 4-5 years as another powerhouse. The alternative is trying to milk everything you can out of Kane and Toews and be in a similar spot you are now for a while. Mainly becuase the decline for those two is going to come at some point in the not too distant future and then your top end talent really drops off. But that is just my opinion.

Great should cost much then...a 7th? Theres a reason the Hawks and Leafs are 7th to last and 9th to last in the rankings today.

Montreal doesn't need to get rid of Alzner's contract. Bergevin doesn't do rentals, never has, never will.
