Hawks already have 3 RD's. You can keep the 6 mil cap hit.

If you could get Forbort vs Reilly, that would make sense. Reilly doesn't fit the D core and definitely not a partner for Hronek. Let Soucy pair with him or Forbort if that were an option.

So Hawks most likely trade down in the 7th round for the priviledge of taking Myers full cap hit and salary? That'll be a pass...

$1 M in real money, gets the Hawks closer to the floor and helps their tank

They'll have plenty of help getting to the cap floor by getting picks for cap dumps. Hawks aren't Arizona. They have plenty of money.

As long as he’s traded after Sept 1, the Hawks would only pay him $1M in real money. $6M cap hit but only costs ownership 1M. For a team looking to meet the cap floor I don’t think it’s that ridiculous of an idea. Swap the 7th out, we’ll give you a 6th for the privilege

The trade has a '23 pick involved. So the trade happens before his bonus is paid. And even for a 6th, Hawks still decline. Check w/ Anaheim. They may take him.

Myers would make them worse, this is true.

Vancouver isn’t trading a useful middle six winger, a younger better, cheaper dman and a pick for reilly just to get 2 mil in cap space.
