Chicago laughs.

The capable Schmidt only cost the Canucks a pretty meaningless pick. Wanna cap dump...the return isn't much, certainly not Strome

So for the hawks to take MAF from vegas the cost is a 1st rounder. So you think they're just gonna throw in subban and strome for free?

Would only happen if fleury was 3 years younger and hawks were still going for it with that goalie duo for some reason

To get Strome and Dump MAF I think Chicago would start by asking for Cody Glass

I'm not sure what it would all take, but to get Strome and cap dump Fleury would be worth more futures for sure. If Chicago asks for Glass, Vegas might push someone like Peyton Krebs and a pick instead since Glass is a capable 3C. If Chicago decides that they want to keep Toews and Kane happy, they may try to get an actual starting goalie. If they ask for too much for Strome, then Vegas could package Fleury and a 1st for a throw in, and then sign someone like Haula as a cheaper option.

I think they would be interested in Krebs. Chicago talked about a rebuild this offseason, if they really wanted a starter the would have just kept Crawford who signed for only 3.9 mil and didnt want to give him the extra year. So I dont know why they would want a worse goalie in MAF at 7 Mil. So I dont know why they would do that just for a starter. Now I can see them making a deal for MAF because Vegas is cap strapped and could pry someone like Krebs, Glass or an extra 1st out of there. But if you want Chicago to talk MAF and give up on Strome I think it would be higher in my opinion. I mean look what they took from the Canucks for Schmidt, Vegas only got a 3rd for him and hes a top 4 d man, not a goalie making 7 mil who is on the back half of his career.
