Sujet: trade with Hawks and Blue Jackets

Ahhh yes! Those cups. It appears we had almost forgotten of them. It's so bloody strange how us Hawks fans have been granted the greater knowledge, for the whereabouts of this club's direction. As if we feel the team has no particular need for members of Toronto. Perhaps, the Hawks would enjoy relying on the apparent youth... continuing their development. But how? How could opposing fans possibly understand? Is all they see, the inexperience of our goaltender depth? Perhaps, they feel we need another member of the defense position! Shame on us, the fans of the Windy City! Please, let the poor leaf fans shove the unwanted, into our faces! We must accept with no further questions!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Maybe McCann is, but to say you don't care about Saad tells me your don't understand what type of player Saad is and don't understand how difficult it is to find a to 20 2-way winger in the NHL. You can always find bigtime scoring wingers (at a price of course) as UFAs every season; Hall and Hoffman (likely available now) this season. Finding a winger that brings a total 2-way offense and defensive game to the ice at the level Saad does or even much better then Saad (Hossa, Stone, etc.) is very difficult. These types of players are invaluable in the playoffs especially, Toronto is hopefully figuring that our as an example of team without one.</div></div>

OMG I MEANT I DONT CARE ABOUT TALKING ABOUT HIM ANYMORE. Thanks for giving me lectures every time I respond to you. Brandon Saad is awful in the offensive zone. He's a turnover machine when he crosses the blue, with attempts to pass it back to his blue liners, instead of SHOOTING THE PUCK. That's great that he can hold the puck, but he doesn't know what to do with it most of the time. He wasn't even on the power play for most of the season. His defensive numbers don't matter when the team is at the bottom of the league in total defense anyways. He's OVERRATED by hawks fans and especially you.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>We have Toews, Dach, Strome, Kampf as our centers, and McCann is more a center, but this would for sure mean moving him the LW as he won't replace Dach or Strome at the C. That said, the LW is relatively crowded with Debrincat, Kubalik (both whom he wouldn't replace) and Nylander and Highmore (rounding our the bottom 6). That means McCann would be replacing Nylander on a ELC so not sure that makes sense from a cap perspective and more importantly, doubt the Hawks are ready to give up on Nylander. More importantly, we create a big hole in our top 6 losing Saad on the RW side and don't have someone to fill in that spot on our roster or prospect pool.

I don't see this idea working out even if McCann despite being a downgrade to Saad, offers Chicago a young RFA.</div></div>


You trade Strome then bc I'm pretty sure McCann can actually win faceoffs and play defense. Way better fit for the third line.
