Could be a nice pickup but apparently he's a winger and not going to play c going ahead. Totally fine though with Petey or JT though. Fits the age range Allvin is after as well.

Ugh why is this trade good?
Can someone explain this trade?

With how he has meshed in the early going with Bedard, I'm not sure the Hawks want to trade him this season without having anyone else of skill to keep bedard going well. If the Hawks were open to trading Kurashev, however, this is the type of return that we would be targeting. Young, promising prospect in a position of need. Probably an overpay. A good proposal IMO

@Prime_Jimbo is correct. Kurashev is not an answer to play 2C. With that said, Hawks should take that deal. That's a good return for Kurashev.

Don't think the Hawks are looking to move Kurashev and would need to be compelled to consider it as he has looked pretty good this season. At a minimum, Bains would be of more interest than Sasson.

My counteroffer would be Kurashev, Isaak Phillips, Collin Blackwell (50% retained) & LA Kings '24 2nd for Bruzstewicz, Bains, & Vancouver's 24 1st. Phillips is a prospect that simply gets overwhelmed by the Hawks depth of choices at LHD with the Canucks pretty thin on that side. Blackwell retained is a cheap depth piece that is likely a better option than some of the kids playing in the bottom of the lineup currently. Moving up 19 (currently) spots in the draft is probably the type of compelling thing that would get the Hawks actually considering moving Kurashev. The prospects orginally proposed (or even subbing Bains) have pretty long odds to ever be even as much as Kurashev is presently.
