This seems like a pretty good move for OTT

I think I do it

I'd probably do it too. Good out of the box idea.

Not a great move for Chicago.

Sens accept that you might not even need to add a pick either

Sure. Not a GREAT move and doesn't really help them this season. But incentive is there for both sides. And if White comes back from this injury strong it would be a nice addition for them.

Yeah seems like a net loss for the hawks losing a pick and an effective player in Strome for somebody that will be out for half a year. I'd say take out the pick and its more even.

Oh yeah? I was thinking the 2nd might be too much.

Darn right it is.

100%

I agree

I'm sure the Hawks. won't mind a White for Connelly trade. But Strome can be a handy guy. Even those two players traded doesn't seem great for the Hawks, never mind adding a second.

bad for the hawks

With White needing surgery on his shoulder and likely out 4-6 months I don't see how this is possible, but I like the idea. White would do well with a change of scenery.

As I am saying below, the 2nd is overpayment so if the pick is out of the deal, Ottawa shouldn't do this

Connolly is not a contract the Sens will want

As for Strome, not sure he would be a Sens type player but I could be wrong. I think they'd prefer to have White who is a much better skater and much better defensively, while having a better physical game. He is also more consistent offensively even though Strome has more upside. If Dylan was strong on face-offs, maybe that'd change things but I can't see them being interested in Strome.

Colin White is also part of the leadership group, Chabot's best friend and very well-liked by everybody. As of now, his contract helps reachign the cap floor so no reason/rush to move him.



Yeah no reason to give up that 2nd round pick.

Anyway, I don't think anyone would trade for White this year with him being out long-term and having term left.

This thread should be made for 2022-23

Im confused as to how this benefits the hawks?
