That is the absolute max I could see CHI paying for Kuzmenko, and even that is probably a stretch.

I don't see this trade happening.
No thanks.
Sorry.
If Canucks trade Hoglander to the Hawks for a draft pick, it could work in their favour.

Sens aren't moving G

Sure. I also have doubts about whether VAN would do this. But from Hawks perspective, the only reason to acquire him is to attempt to make a profit. A guy who will be 29 years old in the first year of his next contract has no place in CHI's rebuild, long term. So, unless VAN is desperate for cap space, there is no point in CHI being part of Kuzmenko discussions. I guess we could also accept something in return for 3rd party retention. But, that'd likely be more than anyone is willing to pay.

I just hope this trade rumour doesn't happen
