Rumor has it that Kevin Hayes won't be signing with the Hawks. If he becomes a FA, Chicago gets an extra 2nd round pick (2015 I think?).
He's a big RW and of course a linemate of Johnny and Bill Arnold. So, what should Burkie offer the Hawks? Or just hope that he hits FA and will want to join the team with his BC buddies instead of the 28 other suitors?
CGY 2nd + COL 2nd? Or is somebody going to offer more? Or is the guy just riding Johnny's coattails anyway and we'd be better off staying away?

Depends on where that 1st is, I guess, and where our pick is.Not sure if trading Hudler is a good thing; he seems to be a likable guy/leader in the locker room (i.e.: taking Monahan into his home). however, if Burke were to trade Hudler, this is what I'd do:
Trade Hudler for a 1st round draft pick and a prospect.
Then trade our 1st, along with the other first and prospect to get into the top 2/3.
Is it feasible or is it out of whack?
Yeah I could see giving up a 2015 4th for Hayes, assuming he'd sign here. Otherwise just wait until free agency.
The Hawks would get a 2015 2nd just by not doing anything so I assume they wouldn't do that trade. Personally I do think he's well worth a 2nd rounder as we'd be lucky if that 2nd rounder is a player of Hayes' calibre 4 years from now. I can't see him making FA.
Pretty sure that college (or any) free agent compensation went out the window with the last (pre-2005) CBA. That's how Feaster was able to pick up Knight for a 4th. And why Anaheim lost Schultz for nothing.
Compensation only applies to first round picks who don't sign with their respective teams. Knight was a 5th round pick while Schultz was taken in the second round.
Hayes, as a former first round pick, would get the Hawks a late second if he doesn't sign with them. So the price to get him would be a 2nd+, in the same way the Rangers had to give up more than just a second rounder to get Erixon.
Better to let him go to free agency than waste assets.
Is there a source for this rumor? Because I have seen no such rumour, just blind speculation from fans that want him to play with Arnold and Hayes in the Flames organization because they have this crazy notion that the magic will continue at a higher level.Rumor has it that Kevin Hayes won't be signing with the Hawks.

@HawksCap If you're talking Kevin Hayes I've heard the 'Hawks won't be signing him. Just what I've heard, tho.
I have no problem going after Hayes as a UFA because he is a good prospect. I just think it's stupid to go after him for no other reason than he was playing with Gaudreau and Arnold and that is why alot of people want him, same reason they want(ed) Rattie.Here you go: https://twitter.com/TramyersCSN/status/448521155583164416
Think we should get rid of Bill Arnold too? Because, y'know, Hnat Domenichelli. I don't think the Flames are in a position to not at least consider about acquiring 21yo 6'4" RWs (1.5PPG in the NCAA) if they can be had for a decent price.
