Chicago declines, they aren’t just gonna win a deal, they’re gonna win it considerably and it’s gonna be by an overpaid margin. They don’t even have to move DeBrincat so as much as people hate these deals, it’s simple, they don’t have to move him so if a team wants him, yes they’re going to have to WOW the Hawks with an offer they have to take to move him. That’s how this works.

It's not a bad offer, #2 overall and a potential starting goaltender, but the Hawks aren't close to competing, and Blackwood is already 25. They could flip him, but I don't really know what the market would be for him. Just makes more work for the hawks.

New Jersey declines. If Chicago wants that 2nd overall pick as badly as it appears, they will have to pony up. There are lots of teams interested.

Giving up a 24 year old two time 40 goal scorer isn’t ponying up? It’s gonna take more than this to get debrincat

CHI declines.

I don’t believe NJD is interested in DeBrincat. Maybe try the Flyers.
