Slavin looked decent last year in AHL but didn't do much in NHL with Hawks

Then he fell off badly this season

Have no clue on this Duck guy but does he have any NHL upside?

Don’t think so, just like Slavin Drew had a much better AHL season last year than this year. Also he’s been moved to forward full time despite what your writer said

Was he that bad as a defender?

Can he skate at least?

Yeah…this Drew guy better watch out. Blues just acquired a guy from the Rangers who skins hunters.

 

[Static]

Drew is primarily a forward now who will do some enforcing, has a great shot, but just can't skate at all.

 

[57special]

I like Slavin

 

[McDNicks17]

Chicago gets more first names in the deal, so they win this one easily.

 

[BatVader]

Someone better check on James Duthie…

Read this as Carolinas slavin when I opened this forum and was stunned lol.

I saw the name Slavin and died

Well, that is not what I wanted to hear.

Didn't even know there was another J Slavin....

If he could skate he would be an NHL fourth liner right now.

Lol... Same. The red banner threw my brain off for a moment.

Yay, the Ducks continue to get softer!

Got a bomb from the point, has grit & was placed playing forward in a checking role because of it, even though he's a defenceman. Not much upside but he's a good locker room guy.

Taking the Ducks poster at face value, the ducks win this. Slavin wasn’t awful in his chgo time last year. Could be bottom 6 - 4th liner if he gets it together. I think this might be a trade to wake both guys up but more so from the Slavin end.
Davidson has shown in the past to move guys who aren’t in his NHL plans to give them a shot somewhere else.
He does very much normally favor good skater - high energy guys. So I’m surprised at who the Hawks got back. A slow skating fighter is not his MO.

4th line part time enforcer if he improves his skating.

 

[Rich Nixon]

EA generated these names

 

[McDonald19]

No, that’s his biggest issue.

Good luck to Josiah
