Thread: Chicago what would it take
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>To me...including Schneider is a pretty large negative. He's NOT a true #1 goalie which means the Hawks will have a $6M backup for a few years which isn't ideal cap management since they're already up against the cap ceiling. I personally have would trade Lehenr at half retention to the highest bidder. Call me cold and heartless...I don't care. The Hawks problems are singular. Get as many high picks as you can. I don't see NJ being the landing spot as I don't see them giving up enough assets to get him. Yeah...I guess they could, but NJ isn't a true cup contender this year. I see a team like CAR because it's already clear they don't have a #1 goalie. They also have multiple high picks over the next few years. Or if an unfortunate injury were to happen. I would hate for any player to get hurt, but it does happen.</div></div>

I agree, Schneider is going to be a problem for us for years to come. I can't see any team taking that off our hand.

Thread: Edmonton and Colorado
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>that is too much, over payment.
Timmins Zads, Bura, and 3 draft picks? Dear lord that is just a gross over payment and a way to just gut a team, killing their cup window before it even opens fully

I would say the vast majority of avs fans (and the majority of any other teams fan base with that sort of value given up) would say thanks no thanks if that is what the cost of Hall is. Devils can ask for too much, not get a trade and he will walk for nothing</div></div>

for the Hall trade it was only two picks, and in the comments I noted that I thought it would be too much and had remove the 1st? To the Vatanen trade I figured Timmins was a second round pick, and Vatanen is playing well so added the 4th.

Remove the 1st from the Hall trade, remove the 4th from the Timmins trade, does that still look to be too much?

Thread: New Lines
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Book_Hockey</b></div><div>Hughes should be paired with Bratt/Boqvist and Palms. No reason to keep him on the 3rd line with guys who cant keep up with him skating wise after two games. If Hynes keeps this up he wont be behind the bench come the new year,</div></div>

Hynes isn't going anywhere.
Hughes is great offensively, but needs a lot of help on defense (Coleman) and physical protection (Simmonds). Doesn't really matter if he is the #2 or #3. He will learn and be a solid #2 by the end of the year. We have a lot of younger guys that need to learn how to play both sides of the puck. Mixing the lines up will cover their inexperience until they improve. I do think Boqvist should be one the ice instead of Rooney, and I think he will in a very short time. I would like to see Gusev and Bratt swapped, but that is just me.
