Getting rid of Kubalik is a terrible terrible mistake.

The forwards after Kubalik are a drastic drop off. Although, I guess it isHawks tradition to find amazing talent overseas and trade them away for a player we will almost immediately regret. Remember Kubalik has been successful away from Kane on a desolate and desperate roster needing bonafide players and not college aged kids just trying to stay in the league.

Edit: that’s harsher than I wanted it to be. Just don’t trade Kubalik unless Chychrun or Lindholm get brought into the convo imo.

Edmonton has 3 goalies who are playing better than Fleury right now, they have no need for him. Yamamoto + 2nd is a massive overpay for Strome.
