By "bring him home", I don't know if you're refering to Tanev or Reinhart but I love it! When I saw the title and the hawks logo, I thought it was some BS insane offer for bedard lol

Chicago will hang up and move on.
They don't need Kuzmenko.
Moving on.

Hawks probably consider that. A 4th is reasonable to take a flyer on Kuzmenko.

Oh wow a very reasonable trade that you think is terrible, what a surprise.

I wasn't even thinking about that. Pretty funny accidental troll lol

I feel like you could get more for Kuzy? I mean he was almost a 40 goal scorer last year and is still very talented offensively, I feel like a 2nd is probable

Maybe. it's tough to know his value right now. I wasn't really focused on a set return more so just that he's traded for a pick

I don't mind the Kuzmenko trade. One year to see what he's got, probably just flip him at the deadline next year, regardless. Reinhart would be an interesting addition for VAN, but I kinda doubt he takes $9.5M. From a financial aspect, I think $9.5M is a good number under the cap, but it feels like players want to make a push for a larger piece of the pie. I think we could see that this summer, especially after Nylanders contract. But maybe other players won't be asking for quite as much. I know that, if CHI were looking into him, anything over $9.5M would make me uncomfortable.
