Hawks easily decline. They don't want either Husso or Maata. And those two picks aren't near enough incentive to take them.

Hawks don't need another goalie or LD.

I think Berggren can be a solid 40-50 point winger.

… That doesn’t mean Carolina’s gonna treat him with that value considering we insist on burying him in Grand Rapids at almost 24 years old.

They don’t touch that trade.

Calgary declines.

The only value piece in that Necas proposal is Wallinder, and the Canes don’t need any LHD prospects. Easy pass.

Don't let DRW's obsession with waiver exemption fool you. Until Wallinder can prove it at the NHL level, Berggren's got more value.

It's middle 6 winger prospect who has proven it at the NHL level versus bottom 4 defense prospect who hasn't.

Hawks would need adequate compensation to take on those cap dumps, and from your suggestion it seems you aren’t willing to pay is.

Hawks could probably work out something with Husso, assuming we are compensated fairly. Probably not going to touch Maatta though.
