TBL one more add

Not sure if anyoneone would spend 1.32 million to buy a 5th round pick, but it won't be the Hawks who own way to many better picks in the next couple drafts and would not burn their 2nd of 3 retention slots for that.

It would be 667k for a 5th. At absolute best, to any team, it should be a 4th, but a 5th is definitely in range, especially talking just one season of retention. The retention slot is a factor,but the value is in line.

Ohhh....you mean 33% after Winnnipeg retains half. Yes the value is fair, but I still doubt Hawks would have any interest. First, that 5th would be the 16th highest pick in the next 2 draft for the Hawks. Burning a 2nd retention slot when the Hawks have 2 left and a bunch of pending UFA's with significant cap hits to potentially move at the deadline for in theory higher picks is not ideal. Last, with the Hawks holding the Tampa 1st, the last thing they should be doing is helping them in any way field a better team.

I would guess someone will retain that for a 4th/or 5th....just doubt it is the Hawks.

WPG says... NO.

Yes, it was my error on the wording/placement of the trade parameters. I went ahead and adjusted it.
