<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>Yeah so assuming they don't care all that much about the 6 mil cash the question is the 4.6 mil cap space. They only seen to have kurashev as a significant RFA left. Call him 2.5 and another 3 mil for 3 scratches. So 5.5 mil, leaves them with 12.5 mil in cap space. And they have ****ty options in net. Seems like they have the space if they want to and it's mostly a question of getting as much value as they want.

But it wouldn't hurt them to take him on (12.5 or 8 mil, will grow to plenty of cap space by January either way and they only have two retention slots left), so I suppose it's a question of meeting their price. <strong>But they're likely better off not playing too hard ball and getting an asset and a goalie who may help, then getting nothing I'd think.</strong> 🤷</div></div>
Hard disagree. They have 3 promising young goaltenders that need playing time. They’ve got a good setup now with Mrazek/Soderblom splitting games in the NHL and Commesso/Stauber in the AHL. Bringing in Murray screws that up and ensures that the younger guys aren’t getting games. A 3rd and a middling prospect isn’t worth it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>No moving Murray isn't going to cost a 1st. The goalie market right now is paper thin and the Hawks only have 1 goalie on their roster and he is both terrible and absolutely will not play more than 30 games. Do you really want to throw a couple AHL guys to the wolves? Murray doesn't have any value but it won't cost a tonne to move. It's been reported today that they are shopping him and expect a late pick in return. Guess what, your GM is giving guys like Perry and Foligno 4 million a piece to insulate Bedard. Getting a 2 time cup champ goalie for free is likely par for the course for you guys. It's a clear upgrade and could he a good move if Murray stays healthy. For a team with loads of cap space and a clear need in net, it's certainly not far fetched. No matter how badly you dream of screwing the leafs over.</div></div>
The Hawks have 4 goalies under contract, they don't have room for Murray. The plan is for Soderblom and Stauber to get NHL games this year. Murray makes that much more difficult. I'm not saying moving Murray is going to cost a 1st or commenting on value. But I think your evaluation of Chicago's situation in net is off. They don't have a need there, and sending them Murray isn't doing them a favor.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Steven_Stamkos</b></div><div>Personally, I would do it as Chicago. I think Timmins is a good player and it's fine value for 1 year of Murray, even if he is buried or rides the pine. Definitely an underpayment for a cap dump compared to what the majority of this site would suggest.</div></div>
I like Timmins decently enough, but I just don’t see him being worth it. The Hawks have 4 goalies already, so they have to figure out what to do with the extra guy. They have 3 RD in the NHL and Regula that needs time. Short term I don’t really see a fit. Long term, the Hawks have Jones and Murphy signed on the right side with prospects coming up, and Timmins is a going to be 28-30 before the Hawks really start to push to contend. The rest of the core will be early 20s. Unless they think Timmins can be picked for a really good pick, I just don’t see what it does for the Hawks.
