I get what you're saying but if you're right and let's say the Hawks dump Toews and Kane at the deadline, and eat half of their salary, they'd still be cap compliant (at this point) and would probably take on an expiring bad contract from a team trying to make the playoffs who's up against the cap and needs to dump salary to acquire player X who will put them over the top. At that point Davidson would have the leverage and would probably want picks (or top prospects) coming to Chicago as well.
