Hawks take that

This prevents Edmonton from ever making the playoffs again during the McDraisaitl prime as Price is 33 and is a league average goalie at this point, like, 😳

Hawks Reject, Danault isn't having a good season and is going to be a ufa depending big money, If the hawk's would to trade Strome it shouldn't be for an older center if anything a younger top 6 winger or picks.

Why would they?

An extension for Danault wasn't implied though

😳

Y'all here undervalue certain players to silly extents

DStrome is just the tall version of Clayton Keller

Trading that for a few months of Danault is nuts

Strome isn't gonna get us a young top six winger - Danault has been a Selke contender recently and may just be having a down year. I think it's a great time to buy low on a guy who can anchor a defensive 3rd line for years to come. The Hawks have been missing that Bolland-esque presence for years, and Danault is perfect for that going forward.

I assumed an extension was implied. Not doing this as a rental.

Oilers decline. We dont want the worst goalie with the worst contract in the NHL no matter what you offer

Detroit picked up Mike Vernon = 1 Stanley cup
Detroit picked up Dominik Hasek = 2 Stanley cups
Ken Holland comes from the Detroit organization.

Was Hasek the worst goalie in the league?
Did Hasek have the worst contract in the history of the NHL?
Holland from Detroit organization, who new that?

Nobody wants the Price contract.
Retain half or give up trying.

He's a rental, a UFA....that is crazy how in favor that trade is for MTL given that

Yea I would only take this if there is an extension in place, my main point is that Danault is better for the Hawks long term as a 3rd line defensive center with very good offensive upside, versus Strome who has a higher offensive ceiling, but won't get top six minutes ahead of Dach or Toews.

Don't disagree...as long as an extension is in place
