<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DartGuy86</b></div><div>Just out of curiosity, how do you feel about the Hawks offseason so far?</div></div>

Big overpayment for Jones both in trade value and in cap hit.

Letting Suter, Hinostoza and Kampf walk was stupid. Betting on Borgstrom, Nylander, and Guadette to replace those guys is risky given what they have/have not proven so far in the NHL. Toronto is going to love Kampf defensively and transitioning the zone.

McCabe was a good pickup.

Tyler Johnson to replace Kampf makes sense if you exclude the cap hit difference and age; take that into consideration and another bad move.

Moving Zadarov was the right thing to do.

Khaira was a dumb move but Hawks wanted a enforcer and big body so kind of get it. Much rather have Hinostroza instead.

Suter should have been kept and Strome traded.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lyle_Bubas</b></div><div>apparently there was reason to believe that holl was going to get taken, bc he's actually good (something people somehow refuse to accept every summer lol)

oleksiak and larsson both signed for $4M plus, played LESS than holl, were on worse defensive teams than holl and had less points than holl

holl is outstanding value for a top 4 defensemen, and for whatever reason when paired with jake muzzin, he punches far above his weight class/salary grade - he's hugely valuable

idk why when we had arguably a top 5 blueline in the league (GA wise), we want to lose bogosian, dermott and holl in one offseason lol

now instead of losing kerfoot for nothing and having hallander and a 7th as trade chips (i.e. worthless), we lost hallander and a 7th and now have kerfoot as a trade chip - we're objectively better off lmao</div></div>

Do these charts show the strength of partner? Justin Holl plays in the top four but is carried by Jake Muzzin. The Maple Leafs defence improved because they signed T.J. Brodie and Zach Bogosian. Not because of Justin Holl.

I don’t know how to add photos like you but these two charts speak to me.

My frustration comes from this organization wanting to roll back the same unit that just collapsed against MTL and more than likely blocking Liljegren again. Cause I don’t see them rolling out:
Rielly Brodie
Muzzin Holl
Sandin Liljegren

And I believe McCann would have made an awesome addition to this group
