It doesn't cost a 1st to dump Lucic at this point and Calgary doesn't need the cap space

I don’t c Chicago selling Murphy for that little, but I also don’t see him as the ideal fit for Buffalo. They need to add a younger option who can grow into a second pair role with Power. Personally I’d try and see if Helge Grans was available.

Hawks decline this deal as proposed. If they like Kisakov as a prospect, he's fine. Otherwise they ask for Bloom. They'll also want the Philly or Buffalo 2nd, not the Vegas 2nd. And no 4th coming back to Buffalo. No reason for that pick to be in this trade. Take out Comrie and Bjork if you want. Neither has any value to Hawks.

Zero chance Boston does that. Take out Foligno you’d have a better chance. But they are not using a 1st to move Reilly/Smith without something of value coming back. Smith contract expires and Reilly is depth insurance and cheap buyout in offseason.

The others are iffy as well. Calgary maybe but unless they still think they can make a playoff run they are better off just letting his contract run out.

The idea of weaponizing cap is appealing, if the compensation is there. Adams and pegula don't seem to have any interest.

Don't need Comrie, don't want Bjork, don't want Kisakov, and adding a bunch of stuff doesn't make up for the 2nd round pick being so late.

I can't be the only one who would never want Lucic on this team; Even if it was only for a moment. Never want that trash on our books for whatever reason.



(In case you wonder why, I will never forget that hit on Miller)
