1) Not a chance Hawks retain on Murphy. Toews, Kane, Domi and AA will be the retention targets and that hits their allotment of retention.
2) William Nylander is too old to build around and doesn't fit the Hawks timeline
3) Kerfoot is a cap dump as far as the Hawks are concerned and they can't flip him for much of anything as the Hawks already use their retention slots....he doesn't have much value at his full cap hit
4) Nylander is going to be a UFA, there is not a chance he is worth Kane, Murphy and Domi. In fact, I don't think he's worth Kane alone as in that scenario, all the Hawks are doing is kicking the can down the road to next season trying to flip Nylander as a rental who is not as valuable as Kane as a rental.
So there is zero chance the Hawks accept this, let alone Nylander for Kane
