Thread: Couple trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Copenhagen</b></div><div>I dont watch Chicago enough, why do all Chicago fans want to move Gustafsson</div></div>

There are actually a lot of reasons. Zero of which have to do with his play on the ice. A.) he's a UFA B.) The Hawks are tight up against the cap next year and don't have Dylan Strome or a #1G signed. It'll be near impossible for the Hawks to offer him anything close to value. C.) The realistic view point is this team probably won't win the Stanley cup. I know shocker to other fans. So if you can't keep him...make sure you get something for him D.) The Hawks have Boqvist and Beaudin developing in Rockford right now, plus Ian Mitchell playing at Denver University. It's widely believed that one of those three...likely Boqvist will take his place on the PP...and they're all clearly ELC costs. E.) This might just be me, but there should be 16 teams at least looking to see what he'll cost @ the TDL. $600k (Hawks eat half) and literally every single team in the NHL can afford his services. Zero teams will need to alter their long term plans if they want a rental...OR...if you have the cap going into the future...you can sign him up after a half year try out.
