Prefer Anisimov. Value wise it makes sense but we don't need wingers.

So many folks around here scoffed when I suggested Hawks look to James Neal last year. He certainly looks worth his weight in gold right now. I can see him being a TD offering, but the price will be HUGE now.

Well he's either spent the last 4 years being tragically misused and developed by MTL or he's another very underwhelming player from his draft class.
I don't watch him enough to which it is and while it'd be nice to have a younger and maybe cheaper middle-6C option, we know what we have in Anisimov and we know it's good.

He's a nice player who's off to a hot start. But he makes 5 mil. He's not going to shot 45% all year.

What top nine winger is he replacing and what on Earth makes him worth ~4 mil more than whatever guy he'd be replacing?
There's a giant CAUTION sign over our D right now. Save the cap space we got from the Hossa LTIR to potentially address that problem. They DEFINITELY shouldn't have blown assets on a winger that is going UFA at the end of this year. The price was too high to start the season, it will obviously be far too high come TDL.

I'd entertain AA+ for Galch
Maybe AA + Gus would be better or AA + Pokka.
Just coming from our perspective. But Bergy isn't always smart. maybe he would go for it.

To clarify, I was not advocating bringing Neal in now or at this year's TD. It was just a thought last year when he was left unprotected and Vegas seemed poised to deal for prospects.

He's been fine for what he is. I think most people would prefer he didn't play most nights

I'd do AA for Galchenyuk if Schmaltz can stay healthy and keep playing at the level he started this season.
Throw in Pokka or some other D prospect other than Snuggie.

To add to the Marc B LOL's
Everyone knew he was awful and yet Marc B dumped Markov and brought in Streit

i was reading a snippet on AG and why he was being traded. the article on a rumor site stated it was b/c the org (coaches?) were tired of his lack of defensive play. AG like to play a perimeter game.

Galchenyuk is a 30/30 guy if he goes to a situation that doesn't undercut him every step of the way. He's an imperfect player, but a damn valuable tool if properly used. Bergevin is mad that his $1400 diamond tipped ban saw isn't as versatile as the can of wd40 he paid twice the sale price for.
maybe i am old school, i can see him coming in and being given all this freedom not to play defense. how do you think the rest of the players will react to this. understanding that they had to deal is AP when he was he.

Yeah, I went with the herd, had to check myself. I don't like Gally, lol. I know he's valued so I might do the deal and flip him but I like AA way better.
