Thread: The Cat

Instead of Jarvis, would Carolina be willing to add Drury? That makes the deal more attractive from a Chicago standpoint.

Thread: Overhaul v2

That'll be a no from Chicago. Not going to give up assets in a rebuild. If you give up Mrazek and a first for a "C" level prospect then fine. See the trade for Fleury last year. Something like that.

Thread: Total Blowup

As a Hawks fan, I like it but you've already heard from Rangers fans who I can't blame for saying no. Just a nit, but given Davidson's comments, I don't think they sign Strome. I also think that the Murphy trade probably could bring more back, as the Hawks are giving them a solid defenseman (if healthy) for Robertson and a first, as Mrazek and Holl are cap dumps. I think Toronto would need to provide more.

Thread: Now that is what I call an aggressive off-season

As a Hawks fan, I'm okay with this trade but only if Suzuki has a clean bill of health (See that he's not playing in the playoffs, assume he's injured). If his injuries are serious, would you consider swapping out Suzuki for Drury? Don't really want Gardiner but understand the cap dump. Hate giving up DeBrincat but I do like the haul coming back.

The Blackhawks accept that trade.

The Blackhawks have an abundance of defensive prospect. I don't see them giving up a draft choice for Kulikov.

Ok you can have the Bean, but you have to take Mayor Lori Lightfoot too.

Thread: CLICKBAIT

From a Blackhawks perspective, I'd do it without the draft choice included. Hawks are hoarding draft choices for the rebuild. I like Suter but he doesn't move the needle to damage the rebuild.

Thread: Gold Knight

From a Chicago standpoint, they have some leverage here. I would make a deal to get Lehner if I'm Chicago (stable goaltending the next three years, keeps them competitive, but not a contender), however it would take a deal similar to what Chicago gave up to get Fleury, which was basically nothing.

Lukas Reichel for Chicago. Should be in the everyday line-up next year.

Thread: New GM Nikita for 2022-2023 season

I understand what you're saying about Chicago being in need of a goaltender, but the Hawks are trying to acquire assets, so parting with two picks (albeit not really high choices) is probably too much to give up. The Hawks can probably get a Hill-like goalie in free agency.

Thread: NYR - CHI Idea

As a Hawks fan, I don't think that's enough of a return considering what they just got for Hagel. Saw an earlier tweet that the Hawks must be "wowed" to trade Debrincat and this doesn't "wow" me. Maybe take out the 2022 draft pick (heard that Davidson isn't interested in 2022 draft choices as he's revamping the scouting staff to get ready for 2023), and replace it with the Rangers 2023 and 2024 first rounders, plus maybe a second in either year and it's possible.

Thread: 2022 Deadline Trades

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FLPensFan</b></div><div>What's Chicago's plan for LD next season? De Haan and Gustafsson are UFA.

Hawks have a lot of young defensemen like Pettersson in the pipeline and they'll need to play. Hawks are looking for top level forward prospects plus picks. I don't think they'd give up Hagel plus picks.

Thread: Sabres

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stanley_Cup_To_Manhattan</b></div><div>Bjork is a serviceable replacement and getting a 3rd liner + cap relief for a 3rd isn't a terrible price.</div></div>

You're right, it isn't a bad price, but, again, cap relief is no longer an issue with the Hawks. Unfortunately, the Hawks have a lot of 3rd/4th line guys in their system. They need top end talent. No reason to lose a draft choice to add another guy who's like what they already have.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stanley_Cup_To_Manhattan</b></div><div>Where is the intrigue for BUF to trade Bjork for Connolly?</div></div>

Don't disagree, but on the other hand where is the intrigue for Chicago to trade Connolly and a pick for Bjork? The Hawks can just bury Connolly in the minors. Cap space isn't an issue.

Thread: Trade Deadline

I think that the Hawks would decline. They don't need Kessel. Arizona would probably be better off trying to trade him to a contender and keeping more salary. I think you'd get a better return.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar. 13, 2022 at 12:59 p.m.

Thread: This deadline will be tough

I think that the Hawks would decline. The two goalies are average goalies at best, and the Hawks have a ton of defensemen in the system like Kokkonen. Besides I think it's a mute point because fleury doesn't want to play in Canada as it's too far from his family and the Covid restrictions are too tight right now.

Thread: Moneyball mooves

With the Hawks deal, if the Hawks kept more of de Haan's salary, would you either a.) drop the 4th rounder coming back to the Bruins or b.) add another draft choice or prospect? Not a bad offer though.

Thread: What about Bob

Hawks felt the same way about Teuvo but were backed into the corner like Florida will be. I don't think a low first will be much enticement for the Hawks to take on a big contract with that much term left.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>I doubt Bob waives. Bob can't even be sent down to the AHL like TBL did with Tyler Johnson.</div></div>

That sucks for Florida because I doubt he'd waive his no trade for Arizona or Seattle either then. I'm sure he'd want to go to a winner but there's not many contending teams that could take on his contract.

Thread: Whos the player Holland has traded for this SZN

As a Hawks fan, I'd make that trade. Glad you added some picks because straight up, it doesn't work given the term left on Kassian's contract.

Thread: Sabres

Don't see the Hawks giving up any draft picks at this point, so if it were Connolly for Bjork straight up, I would take that deal but not if draft picks are going to Buffalo. Sorry.

Thread: just trying something different

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AdamFox</b></div><div>Rangers aren’t doing anything close to this</div></div>

Just curious as to why you don't think that the Rangers would make this trade. Kane is still at the top of his game. The numbers are down some from the glory years but other than DeBrincat, he doesn't have much help. Plus he and Panarin were dynamic together when Panarin was with the Hawks, great chemistry. Hagel is the type of player who can play anywhere and chip in some offense (he has 20 goals this season on a bad team). Every team is looking for guys like him. Plus he's very cost effective for a few years. Not a slam at you, just wondering.

As a Hawks fan, I like Bean but Bemstrom doesn't do much for me. Would you take Murphy and give us our first round pick back (no Bean), or Bean and LA's first pick?
