Bruins absolutely get more for the likely Vezina trophy winner in Linus Ullmark than 2 okay prospects lmao
Ostapchuk is worth late 1st at the very least and Thompson early 2nd
What is Ullmark? I called him one of the most underrated goalies when he was still in Buffalo so I am interested but depends on the price, can't pay a fortune for a goalie, due to market reality

Hawks decline. No reason for them to give up a 3rd for Joseph. If anything, that pick belongs on the other side of this trade going to Hawks w/ Joseph.
Joseph is a solid defensive 3rd line forward, top skater and elite on the PK. He's valuable. People are just down on him because he didn't score goals
But yeah Chicago is not the team for that trade, unless they need to reach the floor and not be too bad of a team

Why would a rebuilding Hawks team spend a 3rd for a $3m a year PK specialist? They don't need any more bottom 6 forwards. If Ottawa retains on Joseph, I could see a playoff contender having interest. He's not a $3m a year player. No clue why Dorian gave him that contract.
It's Dorion... I mean there's like a million things to criticize Dorion for, don't think Joseph contract is one of them. At worst, he'd be fine at 2.5 AAV
