Confirmed Trade: [CHI/BOS] Taylor Hall and Nick Foligno (UFA rights) for Ian Mitchell and Alec Regula

[xjoeyc23x]

Gonna go with smaller cap dump then people think

To
W Trent Frederic (RFA)
D Matt Grzelcyk (1 x $3,687,500)

To

Stars 2023 3rd

Hawks then extend Frederic

So they add top 4 LD (Possible asset to move later) and a young top 9 W

LOL WHAT????????

This will pour some cold water on the Taylor Hall talk.

 

[Atoyot]

Needed to fit Krug and have the Hayes deal completed.

A majority of those teams can't trade for Ullmark without sending their own money out elsewhere. That's the issue. It's not that teams wouldn't be interested in Ullmark, it's that teams can't help out Boston's cap situation by acquiring Ullmark.

Columbus, Detroit, Edmonton, Seattle and Toronto all have highly paid goalies already. Winnipeg has Hellebuyck currently and I don't think they'd want to trade value for Ullmark if they're selling Hellebuyck. Ottawa does make sense as another team but I'm not sure that Boston would want to trade Ullmark in the division.

I think a lot of those teams could find a way to move money to a 3rd party relatively easily, even if it is a Bjorkstrand type of selling low on a decent player.

Winnipeg I think actually makes a lot of sense. They don't want to rebuild

Don't think its Hall and don't think its picks. Hawks have plenty of those. I could see Frederic for cheap or Forbort or Reilly to the hawks for sure.

Looking at Cap Friendly, I mean the Bruins situation looks rough. Even more so if they are trying to bring back Bert (unlikely)

 

[StewieP19]

Forbort or Reily should be traded and boston saving 6.8M

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

LOL WHAT????????

Trying to find a trade that Hawks clearly benefit from

The idea of us giving away 19th overall or being happy to take on Forbort + Reilly for picks are not beneficial for Hawks

 

[Sweetpotato]

Hall with a sweetener to play with Bedard.

 

[MMC]

 

[Empoleon8771]

So much for not trading him due to his knee injuries.

I think Hall makes a ton of sense for Chicago. Give Bedard some top talent to help ease him into the NHL.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Looking at capfriendly

How the hell does a guy like Forbort get a NTC?

To
W Taylor Hall (2 x $6M)

To
RW Colin Blackwell (1 x $1.2M)
Rangers 2023 2nd

Oops

 

[bossram]

Well I was completely wrong. Figured it would be a pure dump like Reilly.

Chicago is getting a solid player to run alongside with Bedard. I don't mind this for them.

[Ace]

So two more lottery wins for Chicago coming yo

 

[Ace0813]

Oops

lmfao, no kidding...

Based on the Pacioretty trade from last year, I'm not even sure that Chicago would even need to trade a 2nd for Hall in this kind of deal.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Hall is a magnet for 1st overall picks, incredible.

 

[Amadeus]

That's crazy

 

[Static]

He waived for Chicago?

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Wow. Curious to see what Chicago is giving up.

 

[BHawk21]

hell ya

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Lets see what we gave up

Hopefully Davidson didn't flub this up

 

[GirardSpinorama]

I feel bad for hall... Gets to play with another generational prospect but too early in that rebuild.

 

[Jared Dunn]

I am betting next to nothing in return much like Patches last year, 3rd or 4th round pick
