This is precisely why Edmonton would never accept this offer. Nugent-Hopkins is 6 years younger and will re-sign to a reasonable deal, he'll likely put up more points than Crosby over the next 5 years anyhow.

Bouchard and Broberg are the 1st pairing of the future, would you trade a young OEL + Carlson for an aging superstar forward? That's basically what you're asking for here. Plus a 1st. Plus Nugent-Hopkins.

Not happening. Holland made it clear that while he's pushing for short term success, his main goal is building a long term contender.

$11.5M contract for a 30 year old for the next 7 years (until he's 38) who has been injured the last two years and not looking nearly like himself. He is not going to age well IMO.

Keith is still very good and holding up well, Seabs has 4 more years left and the last two years I'm betting gets bought out or he retires.

I watch a ton of the Sharks since I'm in california and watch the late games....Karlsson does not look like himself. Those that don't watch him play a lot, won't see that. That said, the value is good on paper, I just don't want to deal with a $11.5M dealing with nagging injuries and signed until he turns 38.

Just because there is value in a trade on paper and cap hits, it doesn't always mean it's a good one on ice for the team especially long term. Hawks need to keep working on developing Boqvist and Mitchell on the right side...that is a strong 1st and 2nd line options on the right side both for under $2M cap hit. Then you have Murphy and Seabs...that's 4 players on the right less then Karlsson's cap hit.
