Bowman let this team walk into the 2018-2019 season with a roster worse than this and then FINALLY got lucky on 2 trades getting Cags and Strome, Perlini here. Other than that he has been mostly garbage recently

Sujet: How I Handle the 2019 Hawks off-season

I’d still like to add another Center but this would leave about $14M for next season (not counting any salary cap bump) to sign DeBrincat & Strome. The kids on D are on their way and in 2-4 years that Blueline will be crazy good. I’d also draft Byram 1st round this draft.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Petrock83</b></div><div>Who said anything about trading? Panarin ruins our cap situation for the next two years, when we pay him 10M+ and he doesn't fill our biggest hole (defense), that's idiotic. To fill that hole, though, you signed one of the most defensively irresponsible defensemen in the league when we already have Gustafsson, and have Boqvist coming through the system. You signed Perlini to a 2M+ contract, you have Kampf as the 3C, and you put Hayden as a center, which shows me you know very little about this team. Try again.</div></div>

I don’t think Hayden will be on this team much longer personally, and again these are moves I’d expect from Bowman not myself..... not sure how many more times I’ll need to explain that one to you. I’m gonna post another one with what I personally would try to do with the Hawks. This is what I expect Bowman’s dumbass to do. I think he goes hard at panarin and offers a lot of money to him.

Who would you realistically trade off the team that the Hawks could actually trade? Meaning not Seabrook, Keith or Toews as they all won’t waive their NTC.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Roviet_Sussia</b></div><div>How is this realistic? You've lost DeBrincat and Strome next year, have no room for internal defensive improvement, and brought back 95% of the previous years' roster.</div></div>

AGAIN this isn’t what I would do this is what I expect Stan Bowman to do. He is an idiot and I expect this much from him.

I wouldn’t mind it either but these are more along the lines of deals I think Bowman would do not me.

Sujet: Making the hawks terrible for no reason

As a Hawks fan this would be horrible to see the big 2 go but honestly with all those 1st round picks in the next 2 years they would be LOADED sooner than later!! I’d take this as a worst case scenario lol

Sujet: Hawks return to form

I don’t think the Hawks would spend the money on Talbot or Panik IMO. Panarin most likely goes to play for Florida but I guess there is a chance he signs here to play with Kaner again.

Sujet: That top line tho CHI

Any trade involving Kane would have to be a MONSTER package as the Hawks aren’t in a position where they have to move him. He is a future 1st ballot HOF and will have 88 hanging in the United Center rafters. Try again with that trade.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheCelt</b></div><div>Gustafsson for a 3rd, seriously?</div></div>

Honestly with the points he is putting up and the threat he has shown to be on the PP, I think you can get a 2nd out of him from teams looking to load up their D at the deadline like a Toronto.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>Ok, so the Jackets are going to trade Panarin to a division rival, when the Jackets are battling that said team for a playoff spot? No. On top of that, the return is ridiculously bad.</div></div>

Jackets have to trade Panarin and Bob or risk losing them for nothing yet when they do trade them their Cup chances are gone and they aren’t even one of the stronger contenders anyways. If I were the Jackets I’d try to get better for next season and beyond because those 2 guys just screwed your chances of going deep.

If you like a player enough you make room. Even if it were for a rental that’s a damn good rental for a push to repeat.

It all depends what their Free Agency looks like. That run they went on wasn’t a fluke and it’s something to build on for them. They will be contenders if not next year then 2-3 years MAX. Can’t say the same for the Flyers.

Ya the Caps trade was more or less just thinking outside the box from the usual talked about landing spots for Breadman.

Not bad but I think you could get higher picks for Sikura and Gus wouldn’t be worth resigning at $5M per year IMO. I like the Saad trade and although I’d like to keep Murphy I would also take that 1st rounder for him. ??
