Thread: Hawks2.0
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lly</b></div><div>1) You want to trade Saad for a guy who is 4/5 years older and only signed for one more season? And throw in a capable center for a 2nd and 3rd in a draft or two from now, meaning those players selected wouldn't likely impact the Hawks until 4/5 seasons? Jeez.

2) Dulair cannot be signed for so little - he has to be offered at least what he made this past season $1.2m at minimum. That's just the rule for RFA qualifying offer of anyone making over $1m.

3) You can't just sign RFAs from other teams - Paquette and Fucale would have to be acquired first via trade.

4) I do like the idea of Paquette-Bozak-Grabner as a checking line, but they're not likely to score enough to warrant Bozak getting $4m.</div></div>

The point of the trade was to free up cap space that the hawks desperately need and get a 25-30 goal scorer in return isn't too bad and draft picks we get in return were for maybe a trade in the future maybe trade deadline. Duclair I could care less really. Bozak is easily worth 4 million a year and would be great in a hawks uniform.
