Lindholm deal isn't remotely realistic and most of these free agents are going to be looking for a chance at the cup in the next 2 years which Chicago isn't close to at all. Hawks also need to be warry of spending too much as the Bedard and Korchinski contracts will both start that year.

I see you are a Leafs fan, how well did signing Marleau and Hainsey work out in 2016? And what if you signed Kuznetsov that year too?

Sorry to say it, but this is really bad. Hawks might sign 2 or 3 UFA's at the most. They aren't paying to dump AA. And where is Vlasic?

CHI is in the same exact spot as San Jose. We are rebuilding and need to hit the cap floor. Whether he is bad or not, CHI has zero reason to move Athanasiou's contract.

So you think CHI is going to buy a top 6 next year?
