Chicago rejects

I don't think the value is there for Chicago, especially if Perreault is included. Niku would get lost in the shuffle with all their youth on defense, so I'd say he holds little value to them. Roslovic and the 1st aren't woth both Zadorov and Strome imo.

I wouldn't really call that a blockbuster

Pretty much this. Niku is a scratch on the hawks. Perreault is a cap dump.
Strome and zadarov are the 2 most valuable pieces in this trade.

I mean, I would rank it strome, Roslovic, zadorov, then niku but fair. I was thinking Roslovic plus perreault (could have retained just didn’t think it would make much difference) equals zadorov more or less and strome equals the first and niku.

I don’t think Niku woudl be a healthy scratch on the hawks tbh. Probably would play 3ld in zadorov’s place and he will be a pleasant surprise wherever he gets his chance. Kids just been really unlucky so far.

But I understand if it doesn’t make much sense for the hawks. I just wanted to do something new! Thanks for the input
