<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Ryminister is a Hawks troll and admins have been involved with his behavior...he's been on a block list for a reason. I get your constant negativity but he's not adding value or knows much about the Hawks, he's simply trolling Hatter and a perfect partner is your kind of posts negativity to jump on; context matters. Also, this conversation should be in the forums if you want to be policing your post with political correctness.

The simple fact remains; the Hawks are the 3rd youngest team right now in the league and The Athletic didn't take into consideration players with NHL experience 23 and under which would have included Boqvist, Dach, Debrincat, Nylander and Strome. Yes, the Hawks are thin with top prospects that haven't played in the NHL yet, and that largely is due to the simple fact is we were drafting late for awhile due to team success and those early draft picks since the Hawks success have been rushed into the league. Sure the NYR are younger with a much better prospect pool but you know how long they sucked for to get there? Successful teams just don't have deep prospect pools or are still having some success and aren't rushing players Boston, Penguins and arguably Pens need to rebuild.

Hawks should have committed to the rebuild 2 years earlier or even a year earlier, but in a cap world and a flat cap world at that, for a team that was the most successful last decade, rushing prospects into the NHL and not have enough prospect depth is to be expected. Hawks will be a bottom 5 team this year, but will gain another top prospect. The hope is they signed players like Janmark, Wallmark and Soderberg to get assets at the TDL. Seattle expansion draft is another key factor, and most importantly the Hawks have cap space for the first time in many years and most importantly in a flat cap world. Fans will have to endure another season of this as well but two seasons from now the tide should start to shift. Best teams with players under 25 you could argue include teams like the Jets and Oilers and yet look at them in no man's land.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>Have fun with a LONG rebuild. Terrible roster and terrible drafting. That takes awhile to replenish</div></div>

I made sure I quoted the original point of contention just to make sure nothing was getting lost in translation. Rye, indeed you did come in a little harsh and it comes off as somewhat condescending. Save for that, it’s a post based on opinion, something that is welcome for debate, yet no one had the foresight to actually try to debate him on it. Beyond that, I’m not interested anyone’s bull**** about how bad someone’s last 50 years have been. It’s not the point of this goddamn conversation.

As for you ChiHawk, I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, stay off my threads and I’ll stay off yours. I’m interested in the **** you stir up in the name of defending the beloved hawks. Nobody ever questions success breeding a lack prospect depth, the only topic of point is whether or not they’re actually drafting and developing in any decent capacity in the last three years. I haven’t blocked you cuz I don’t like doing to anyone, but Jesus, shut the hell up with you’re god awful negativity to anyone who disagrees with you.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lsendel3</b></div><div>Have you watched all 3 games? I have. He's been noticeably better in his own end. In fact, montour and Dahlin have looked really bad in their end. Miller has been consistent, and Joki is poised as ever. The defense has been par or worse then last year apart from Risto. Like I said, 3 games we'll see where he goes. Pleasantly surprised with him thus far. And is Poolman really a roster player? 27 year old with under 100 games doesn't scream that, although I'm not in the loop for Jets players. Roslovic is interesting, but isn't he still a hold out because he wants to play top 6 center? Dunno if he's an upgrade over Staal now and def not Cozens long-term</div></div>

Poolman is a roster player...a late bloomer who was a rookie last year. a decent 2nd or 3rd pair RD. This trade would hinge on Rosy signing so that wont really matter.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>This is exactly what I said. &amp; it wasn't a chirp at all. It's all I said and some people try to justify their points by randomly bringing in another team to try to chirp you for it. It makes no sense. It's the reason why I've had people like ChiHawk blocked for months now. They're useless.

Everything you said I agree with. But people on here jump down my throat for saying it because I'm a Leafs fan. Which makes no sense at all and has no reason to even be brought up. Me saying that the Hawks are in for a long rebuild is based on their situation of prospects and players they have now, not to mention their management team is terrible too. All things that were talked about in this post so it was relevant. But hey, all kids mature at some point hopefully.</div></div>

As long as conversation stays on point, I don’t care who you’re a fan of, so thank you for staying on point.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>Cool. Still doesn't explain how another team making it past the 1st round or not affects their rebuild.

But users like this are the ones that whine about "Leafs fans being bias" or the "arrogant Leafs fans" when literally all I did was say that a rebuild takes longer when you have a terrible roster and terrible farm system. It's quite hilarious how they have to revert to another team to try to validate a useless point that they think they have 😂</div></div>

Guys, what does this have to do with the list? Stay on topic. I get the urge to pile on a leafs fan for chiming on the hawks long term issues, but I’m not having any of that in this chat. Everyone knows the leafs last 50 years, it’s brutal. No need for that here though.

Suffice to say, he may be right, they may have a while to go till they even matter again in the playoff conversation. The hawks don’t have many top tier, high top 6 potential forwards in their prospect or even 1st pairing dmen potential. That can change with experience, but this team is seriously thin on prospects still, and that’s concerning. As for an under 25 ranking, that’s a bit tougher to judge. Reason being, while there are good names under 25 on the hawks, the last 3 years have shown that as a team, they are clearly not a playoff team. On an individual basis, sure, they each have great potential and experience so far. But at the end of the day, does that matter if they can’t pull together as a team? On paper, they’re prospect pool ranking is frankly well warranted. Their under 25s, on the other hand, really depends on how you judge them. Are you looking at them individually, or how their individual talents gel into a cohesive team? If it’s the former, either late top 10, and in my mind more early teens, but if it’s the latter, easily middle of the pack to bottom half.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>Weegar to Dermott is a lateral move, the difference isn't a 1st round pick. - I suggest getting off the lefty/righty idea on the backend. That was Babcock'a idea. Leafs management has made it clear they don't care about handedness.

Larsson, sure why not. I might go for a better proven guy than him, but I think the value isn't terrible. No retention though. Go for a guy like Zach Aston-Reese if he's healthy though.

Moving Holl isn't a good option. He's better than what people give him credit for on this site and his stats say so too</div></div>

If Holl plays as good as he did last season, there would be no need for Weegar. I’d like to trade for ZAR but don’t think he’d be available. The Pens really like him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsForEver</b></div><div>"Not Trading" and "Not shopping" are two completely different things. One means he can be traded and the other means he won't be.</div></div>
GMs never say “untouchable”/“not trading” or “not shopping” in the way fans interpret. If Gretzky can be traded anyone can. GMs are there to make their franchise better so if a deal comes along that is in their value they’d pull the trigger even though that player isn’t on the block.

Pulled from an ESPN article interviewing MB of the date referenced earlier.

"Of course you never say never," he later said. "If somebody offered me half of their team, well, you know, you have to make it work. But it's not my intention."

Bergevin scoffed when he was asked what it would cost another team to acquire Subban.

"I don't even want to go there," he said.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsForEver</b></div><div>"We are not trading Subban".. might it have been the day before, but within a few days. &amp; then PK was traded.

That's not his words, but good job misquoting him to try and prove your point right.</div></div>
Not sure who you’re talking to but MB said “ he's not shopping Subban” on June 23rd 2016 and was traded June 29th.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>
Ah yes, sorry got the 3 numbers mixed up. &amp; the point with Byron is that he's a highly overpaid 4th liner at best. That negates almost all his value. When teams see that another team have a lot of up and coming players that can easily take his spot, they won't give full value for him because they know Montreal has to move him to open up roster spaces for other guys.</div></div>
I see him as a decent 3rd liner but slightly overpaid as he can chip in roughly 20 goals and PK. If a second rounder was attached this would be a slam dunk as we would have openings after the season/post TDL and our impact rookies will be slightly sheltered with him in that role.
