Chicago takes on 7 million in multi-year cap dumps and only receives a lowly 6th round pick in return??
Why on earth would Chicago do that lol.

Sabres have too many d and prospects coming in to pay that for an average high salary D man

Hawks obviously decline. No GM is taking on $7m in cap hit for a 6th. Hawks counter w/ Montreal's '25 and '26 2nd's instead of the 6th.

No way do the Hawks take on Allen for only a 6th. Hawks already have their goalies, so you'd really have to entice them to eat Allen's contract.

I don't think you understand what "cap dump" means

Even if Matheson was worth a 1st,
the Sabres wouldn’t do it

Samuelsson-Dahlin is our top pair, both LH
Power is LH and anchors our 2nd pair

On what planet would ANY team give up a 1st for a guy to play on the 3rd pair???

It’s not happening
And of u knew ANYTHING about the Sabres team makeup,
u wouldn’t have ever suggested such utter nonsense

Here, take our garbage and we'll bless you with a 6th round pick. GTFO with that nonsense!

Um I mean no thank you. However generous that seems, unfortunately the Hawks will have to decline. They don't want to rip you guys off by stealing all that awesomeness.

If you want the Hawks to swallow over $7m in cap hits for Armia and Allen then the Habs better be prepared to give up one of the two 1st round picks they currently hold for the 2025 draft.

Already got lots of lefties, and matheson isnt exactly cheap, so my guess is it won't be buffalo. There were rumors that Buffalo was interested in hanifin, which didn't make a ton of sense, for the same reasons.
