A 5th doesn't even get the hawks to eat Dillions contract....

Kinda feel like its one of those old Washington teams - presidents trophy, first round exit.

haha. That's fair. I was like that for a few months after the Cat trade. But I'm done being pessimistic... <strong><em>for now</em></strong>. I'm just gonna buckle up and watch, but so far I like what I'm seeing. Also, remember how Buffalo let Hagel walk and CHI signed him?

For sure. I don't know how much he will be up this season. But he is definitely a quality prospect that I could see being a long term piece of this team.

Thread: How far would this team go

Amazing forwards and goaltending, but the defense leaves a lot to be desired. But who knows, PIT won a few years back with a pretty depleted defense-- so it's possible. Definitely a playoff team, but would really need the defense to play better than what they are on paper for them to go all the way imo. I'd flip Shattenkirk and Myers though and use Nemeth-Myers sparingly.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kster34</b></div><div>Centres are weak; Peterson not the #1 centre on his own (an average) team, never mind stanley cup winner.

Bergeron and Petey are both top 20 caliber centers at worst, and I even have both top 13. The best defensive forward in the game and a guy who has had his struggles but is clearly talented enough to be a legit star in the league (was a beast later in the season, was a beast earlier in his career too)

True. Hands down, if Fantilli went in the 2022 draft he would have been the undisputed #1 pick overall, so if the Hawks miss on Bedard (who's the next Matthews/McDavid) as much as that hurts, ending up with Fantilli who is almost certain to be a top 30 player when he reaches his career peak is fine by me.

Thread: Opening Night Lines

Jack Johnson won't be on the top line, he will likely be on the 3rd line. The purpose of playing young kids is to mix them with vets and I'm willing to bet Vlasic is a better player at this point anyway.

The bottom 6 up front probably is shifted around as well.

Bottom line, this team will be awful

i see a 2nd round fallout. lots of top end talent but depending on a 37 year old netminder to play the lions share of regular season games and playoffs is asking for failure. if you have Fleury i would play him 50% or less of the regular season games and keep him fresh for the playoffs.
D is a question mark with a lack of top 4 defensive d men and Chychrun is an injury risk.

Thread: How far would this team go

I agree with second or third round. Top 6 is strong but the team is a bit weak down the middle. Defence could also be improved but it's definitely not bad either. I like the grit and work rate of the bottom 6. If Bob is playing well then probably 3rd round
