<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>Really? I mean they get rid of half of Jones' albatross contract, as well as 3 first round picks, one that is potentially going to be top10 one if VAN doesn't get a grip.

It's a long time to pay such retention but man they could make out like bandits here.</div></div>

Hes overpaid by 1-2 million but not really an albatross since the hawks have basically no money on the books coming up and cap is (supposed) to increase a sizable amount over the next 5 years making the Jones contract way more palatable. Not to mention Jones is a minutes eater, top pairing dman, and for 4.75 mil for long term that costs the 3 firsts alone, probably more. Murphy is also solid and getting him for 2.2 for multiple years will cost you first+. Rathbone is an ahler and Pearson is another overpaid 3rd liner, Poolman is a pure cap dump and Van paid a second to get rid of dickinson so itd probably cost even more to get rid of him considering he has an extra year. This deal would never happen since retaining a large chunk for 8 years is unheard of but this is just a terrible deal for the Hawks.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NickC1988</b></div><div>Domi and AA probably get the hawks a mid round pick each, not really crazy about it considering they could've kept a younger player in Strome and gotten more for him at the deadline. I think the Hawks best shot at getting another 1st is a cap dump or Kane trade.

If Raddysh continues to progress, I can see him garnering a return somewhat similar to Hagel. He's making league minimum this season and the next, it seems like a great opportunity for a team with little wiggle room.</div></div>

If Domi plays with Kane he nets 50 points easy, thats worth at least a second rounder maybe more if we retain. AA will probably only be a mid rounder though. Forget where I heard but apparently Hawks were offered a late rounder for Strome so not worth it and its probably better optics to let a great player like him choose his future instead. Kane should get a first for sure, I'd hope for a Giroux like return. Raddysh was a pleasant surprise could see him putting up points next year.
