Murphy not worth a first

Saad gets back either a late 1st or a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th all day.

Murphy likely is a 2nd and 4th.

I think it's safe to say Crow is more around $4M. Caggs a little less. Caufield is a winger not a center but i'm a big fan of the kid (no pun intended). Perlini and Sikura just fell off the map? Kurashev has a better chance then Hagel IMO.

It's interesting to see what a complete rebuild would look like.

I don't think Debrincat accepts 8years at only 7million per year. He's probably gonna command more, especially if he hits 30+ goals again next year.

I think you're right that the 2020-21 Chicago Blackhawks are way more interesting than the 2019-20 Chicago Blackhawks. I think the DeBrincat and Strome deals are right if they sign extensions before the 2019-20 season. I think you've undervalued Saad - the Canes would give one of their defenseman for him, that's was what they proposed in the past and Bowman turned it down (Saad for Faulk I believe). He's the muscle they need. I think you've overvalued Gustafsson. He wouldn't command a first round draft pick. If he did, the Blackhawks would have traded him at the deadline this year. It looks like you place a high value or low value on a player based on points scored. Although, Murphy isn't worth a 1st round pick either. It'll be interesting to see what happens with Crawford after he contract expires. I think it's likely he changes teams for a $7-8m contract for a single season with a Cup contender that's been snake bit by their goaltending.

If youre intend on dumping everyone over 23 on this team, at least get a 2019 1st back so you dont waste 3OA on caufield
