<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Snowhawk18</b></div><div>With all due respect, why the hell would they sign, Mete, Blueger or Blackwell?</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hawksguy81</b></div><div>Your takes on next season seem spot on. No disagreement from me. I'd pass on Mete and Blackwell. Think Hawks can get better players than them. I put Blackwell in the same boat as Reese and Macker. I'm over all of them.</div></div>

Mete just was a place holder for the scratch position. I didn’t want to sign a vet who plays 60 games a year just to be scratched and I didn’t want to use the 7th spot in EDM or Kaiser as I feel if they’re not play NHL they should be playing AHL. Sitting in the press box doesn’t help them. So I figured someone like Mete would be good. Maybe I’m wrong.

Blackwell also as you can see is in the scratch position but he can fill in 4th line for injury or rest. I think he’s done well this season given his injuries.

Bleuger is an improvement on our current situation so I don’t see the issue. Filling that spot with Macker or Dach would be a step back.

Sujet: possible off season
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>Oh come on... A year ago you were ready to trade him for nothing, just like everyone else. haha. The chemistry he has shown with Bedard is undeniable and awesome. But, without someone elite on a line with him, he has also proven to be pretty ineffective. So, if some team comes knocking with a big offer that addresses needs, I think KD would at least consider it. I doubt anyone is untouchable, aside from the obvious few.</div></div>
Totally agree. I remember he was drafted and every time they had one of those prospects articles he was always tearing it up and he’s been my boy ever since. I think he probably came to NHL 1-2 years early. Glad he’s developing but yeah let’s not kid ourselves, he’s not an offensive threat. He’s a 3rd liner probably at best.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hawksguy81</b></div><div>Yeah I know. But the Hawks do need another middle 6 C for next season. AA isn't the guy. After they re-sign Vlasic and Reichel and whatever other RFA's get signed, Hawks still need to spend another 6 to 8 million to hit the cap floor. Some of that gets spent on another vet RD. But the rest is probably on a free agent C. So sign a free agent for $4m or take on JGP and get a couple of picks out of it. Top 6 looks something like this:
Hall/Bedard/Kurashev
Reichel/Pageau/AA
Or Dickinson as the 2C and Pageau as the 3C. It's not like JGP is a useless player. Good at the dot, kills penalties. He's still a capable NHL center - just overpaid. I could be totally off here but it just seems like a good fit.

Unless of course the Hawks land Celebrini!</div></div>

Hall should have an asterisk. He's only LW1 until he breaks apart again. lol
