finally a chi fan with some sense. that's a good deal for jones. and I bet CBJ accepts

My man, this sarcasm?

it might be a bit of an overpay for jones but chi fans tend to think they will get him for scraps.

Holy overpayment

Chicago won't give any two of those pieces together.


Jones is a controversial dman with one year left. A future top 4 RHD, a future top 6 C both who are very young AND an early first is wayyyy too much.


We should be happy with something like Boqvist + Strome, or Steome + Mitchell + first.

this isn't close. Hawks keep ALL of these and sign him as a UFA next year... this is terrible

Yea, that trade is comically bad.

I might give up Dach + Boqvist + 1st for Adam Fox or Cale Makar, but Seth coming off a bad year and hitting UFA in 1? Nope.

Jesus Jones is overrated as hell. You would seriously give that up for an ok 2nd pair defenceman?

These arguments are getting old. Look, teams will make trades based on what they are trying to accomplish with the team they have. This idea of “oh, Boqvist is going could be a top 4 defenseman” or “Dach could end up being a top 6 center” is utterly ridiculous. If Chicago is trying to win with Kane and Toews then they very well may find it worth trading these two for Jones. Neither one of Boqvist or Dach are better than Jones right now. These two may not get much better than they are now and that pick could be a bust. If Chicago were to go on and win a cup or two then who wins the trade?

If jones comes with an extension I think dach + 1st round pick this year is a fair deal.

Naaaaah. Dach is trending up towards being a 1C for sure. We would have to add to Jones to get dach

per Scott Powers the hawks have no interest in moving Dach he’s untouchable also that would be a major overpayment for Jones regardless.

Plus, that leaves the Blackhawks looking horrible at forward and especially down the middle. Don't forget they have to fit RFAs in, like Nylander, Suter, and Hagel. And Toews looks like he'll be back.
