Really happy about this deal. Hawks get a kid who is fantastic at transitioning the puck up ice and who is a righty; the only right shot forwards we have right now are Cat and Dach (Dach being much more of a playmaker ala Getzlaf).
You are right. Forgot all about him.Carpenter is a RH shot as well.
Shutdown Murray or KuleeekovMontour isn't really someone I think of when I think of a shutdown guy. He does an admirable job on that Sabres team, but I think Forsling can/has played at the same level. We need an upgrade to play with Weegar. I'd like either Manson or Savard, although Manson has had the better season. Savard is attractive though because we don't have to give Seattle anything to not touch him.

The Victor Mete profile pic wow
I would also think that Q liked having Vinny around, since they didn't try to risk waiving him to the taxi squad at any point. It got to the point where Vinny hadn't played in so long, that in one GDT we went "oh shit, I actually forgot he's still on the team" lol.Florida only does this to help Vinny out, but that's okay. That's what good orgs do, if they sign a UFA and he doesn't work out, then you try to send him to a place he can have more success. Players don't want to sign for a team that'll just keep them as 13th forwards all year long, especially when said forward is in what should be his prime.
at what point does chicago owe up to florida for all these slushy deals?
