they still threw a bad contract at him, and it wasnt his MS that made the deal bad. Was poor judgment.
Did the same with Bolland, Hossa, Keith, and Seabrook.... Keith's cap hit isnt SO bad, but theyre still stuck with him untill 22-23 unless they plan to "cheat" a la LTIR.
They won their Cups, but now are facing the consequences. Who knows when theyll be contenders again.
Those two contracts were two of the best in the NHL for a long time. They literally had a Conn Symthe Winning, 2x Norris Winner at D in his prime and a 500 goal scoring, possession monster at RW who was the best defensive winger in hockey for under 11 million combined. The Hawks sign both those contracts again in a heartbeat.
