Passing on signing Tavares because schmaltz will need to be signed eventually is stupid. Schmaltz is JAG. Tavares is a superstar. His line would be #1 line. I agree about swapping the NSH pick. Takes Wahlstrom and this becomes a really great move.

Very interesting. New thoughts I like that.

Thread: Minor additions and the lines for next year

With a healthy Crawford this group may make the playoffs and lose in first round. I guess that's better than last year and more of what we come to expect. They need to be able to score more goals next year. First line has 2 guys who struggle of svore and one who struggles to shoot. I like Kane and kitty cat though.

Didn't trade the cat. Schmaltz is asset some believe is good. Cash in now before he proves otherwise.

No way, you have to take Seabrook too!

Anything to remove seabs contract. If Ericsson do score with Kane it will make up for any defensive loss.

Thread: Heading into the playoffs

do this now. don't wait for deadline. I love Filppula. don't love VH. Sweeten the pot if necessary to get it done. However, it looks like Franson is the only thing that will get done. I think they are down a top 6 forward.

Thread: Hawks

Love filppula for those guys. Mcquaid over Franson.? Perhaps. Rutta over pokka. Nice look here with lines.

Thread: Golden knights

I like it. If more is needed send Turco or Pokka

Thread: Camp Roster, Pair Down to Final Team

I'm all for it. I'd switch Schmaltz and sharp. Sharp is going to have to be tha veteran top 6 forward they are missing. With Kane feeding him he should return to productive status. I'd move d s little teaming seabs with Kempney Franson with whichever kid plays that day.

Thread: What do you guys think?

I like the trades but dont think leafs trade Leivo for VH and pokka. They are not very good whereas Leivo is very good. Let's do the Holden thing already. Oh yes please do not submit a team with Roszival on it.

Thread: Thoughts?

Just don't understand the Shaw obsession on here. On offense the Hawks need a top 6 player. On defense they need a top 4 player. This gets neither.

Forum: Armchair-GMAug. 8, 2017 at 5:47 p.m.

Thread: Genius trade series: My Hawks.

I think Hawks will make one move, sign Franson after day one. I also think Le Dauphen is going to surprise everyone and slot nicely into the 3rd line center. I'm a big fan of Hayden, Hartman and Schmaltz as a line too. Sharp slots in with Kaner and is there to shoot. Big question mark is Toews. What kind of season he has will determine if Hawks are playoff team or not. Cant believe I'm saying that but another season as just another guy will not make this team elite. I'm hoping he has a Crosby-esque turnaround. I thnk that is good point about the West beating up on those poor teams to steal a WC slot.

Thread: Hawks + JVR

anything involving JVR always creates responses, I love it. Maybe Toronto will take Seabs for JVR?

Thread: Brassard, Hutton.

Love the creativity here. I just don't see Ottawa trading Brassard for Anisimov. I also don't see the Hawks trading that many of their own players. I'm looking at Dauphen as being a contributor this year and surprising.

Thread: Rolling with what we've got. This is how the team will probably look.

These will most likely be the players although I think they add Franson after the Hossa LTIR move. Dauphen instead of hinostroza. Then q will blenderize for a while and see what happens.

Forum: Armchair-GMAug. 5, 2017 at 4:49 p.m.

Thread: Try it and see what happens

U r right anything could work or implode. Hawks have a lot of bottom 6 forwards. They lack one more top 6 forward. Schmaltz is questionable as a C. Dauphen fortin d-cat and kampf will get looks as well. Rutta will play over Pokka. Remove Roszi from an ability to find nhl ice.

Forum: Armchair-GMAug. 4, 2017 at 9:15 a.m.

Thread: Maroon+franson

If this could play out take it. Not certain VH has any value though. He's fast true, but then he is also just fast. All for Butcher and Franson, but Q will not put Butcher on the first d pair. The reality is the Toews Saad Panik have to be a NHL top 5 first line for this team to succeed. Another season of Toews being nice player instead of a super star and this team struggles no matter whom they add.

Thread: Pacioretty? Yes sir.

I love max for sure and teaming him with Kane would be appointment viewing. However, they are simply not going to move that many players now. Perhaps they pick up Franson after placing Hossa on ltir. I expect dauphen will be 3rd line center with Scmaltz and Hartman. Hayden wingels jurco and Bouma will fill the bottom line. The cat plays in AHL. Q won't play him until January at earliest. I'd trade hinostroza for Holden in a New York minute.

Thread: What the hawks should do

No way philly does that but I'd do it in a heart beat. Maybe rearrange the lines a bit but filppula is a hawks killer. Answers the two glaring needs.

Thread: What to do with that cap space

It's the obvious move which means it won't happen. This team is good provided Rozsival is not on it.

Thread: Make Chicago Great Again

Got to admit I don't understand the obsession some have with Shaw. I like Hayden and feel moving him off toews line last year broke the mojo.

Forum: Armchair-GMJul. 31, 2017 at 11:37 p.m.

Thread: One more tweak

Franson will happen after season starts. Look for Dauphen to 3c wSchmaltz and Hartman. Please remove Rozsival from the roster. Not an nhl player. They need toews to play like a superstar again. If that happens they are formidable. If not another first round ouster is coming.
