Team: 2020-21 Chicago Blackhawks

Initial Creation Date: Aug. 27, 2020

Published: Aug. 27, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

- Sign Krug to replace Maatta/CDH and get rid of the latter two in any way possible.
- The Manson trade is really just a pipe dream bc ANA would never move him and it’s really just someone who I think would be a great leader on this team and it’s essentially a swap of two d-men with down years with probably a pick also thrown in by the hawks.
- Toffoli Signed to replace Saad so we can move Saad for assets.
- Smith sent somewhere with cap space.
- Kampf sent to MTL since they’ll need to replace Domi and potentially Danault.
- Seabs packaged with Saad, Nylander, a second, and a prospect who looks really good but is too young to truly tell and with Ottawa nowhere close to competing they could take their time with him to make sure his defensive play can catch up to the rest of his skill.

One of Highmore, Hagel, and Suter will be able to play with Kane and Dach on the second line, Highmore and Hagel have the energy for it and Suter should have the skill for it although it might take him about half a season to get used to NA ice and earn that spot just like Kubalik.
The rest of the young guys like Barratt, Entwistle, and Carlsson should be competing throughout the first 30 or so games with the other depth guys for roster spots and hopefully we can get them to play to the best of their abilities doing that.
