Murphy magically retire? And f*** no on having Caleb Jones or Mitchell back. Also don't see point of keeping Katchouk around he just isn't a good player but since he is cheap and signed I guess he will be back

Get the god damn kids up on D

Get the god damn kids up

Trade murphy in the offseason. Jones is a RFA and Mitchell and Katchouk are under contract. Produce your own lineup instead of whining.

Explain...$63.2 mill cap hit with Keith, McCabe, Connelly and Borgstrom extra retentions included...

Hoping those big three return as UFAs, I know not a lot of ‘new faces’ but I’d be happy to see this roster together again for another kick at the can...Reichel, Guttman, Korchinski and Phillips as regular NHLers

 

[clydesdale line]

Reichel - Bedard - Kurashev

The rest of the lineup doesn't matter.

 

[BHFAN92]

what is the rule on signing a RFA from another team? Is it a 1st rd pick? I would look long and hard at Jesper Bratt from NJ who is only 24 & averaging almost PPG. Time to infuse some young talent while building through the draft. I would even be willing to get DeBrincat back as well

I dont think the hawks want to give away 4 first rounders including 2 top 5 picks for Bratt

 

[EddieTheEagle]

If you are going the Offer Sheet route, I think the ideal teams to target are up against the cap and have decent, young talent. Someone like Lafreniere is prime for an offer sheet. Offer him $4.2M for multiple years and New York basically can't match it, and it costs us one second round pick. Who wouldn't do that?

I am mostly using him as an example but there are other teams that will be up against it with RFAs sitting there with fairly low qualifying offers.

 

[BHawk21]

the only issue with offersheets right now is our picks are the top picks of those rounds.

put your lineup down

 

[EddieTheEagle]

Yeah, definitely a fair point. The 2023 draft will happen prior to the offer sheet period, so it'd be a 2024 second. So in 2024, we also have Vancouver's 2nd rounder. I think I'd give up 34-36th overall in 2024 for Lafreniere. Not even worried about the $4M salary, we have to spend money anyways.

Why would all those players you listed resign? Most of them have a lot of years of hockey left in them.

No interest in Toews or Kane coming back. Time for a new era with new leadership.

Mitchell is not under contract thankfully and should be not qualified IMO if there is no interest for his rights on trade market

And here you go

- Sign C J.T Compher to 3 yr deal ($4M AAV). He like Domi has moved to C this year and found success with it

- Sign RW Evan Rodrigues to 1 yr deal ($2.25M AAV)

- Take on D Mike Reilly final year of contract ($3M cap hit) from B's with Bruins 2025 3rd round pick

- Take on LW/RW Anthony Mantha final year of contract ($5.75M cap hit) from Caps with Caps 2025 2nd + 2024 3rd

- Re-sign Kurashev, Bjork, Anderson, Soderbloom and Regula and put them on NHL roster

Reichel-Compher-Johnson

Bjork-Guttman-Rodrigues

Phillips-Jones

(Zaitsev)

Mrazek
Soderblom

Ideally, I would want to move Murphy but doubt there is market for him at this time.

D next year has 3 kids on D who are entering the sink or swim phase with more guys in pipeline set to join organization in coming years. We need to find out if Phillips, Vlasic or Regula are worth the Longterm investment at this point as part of our D

-- If Kane wants to come back of course you sign him and slot him in 1st line RW spot and dont bring in Rodrigues --

[hawksfan50]

Loneuo depends on whether they are trying to Celebrate for Celebrini or akreadyvhavexBrdard inthe fold.

If they draftat Fantilli he naycsyayc1 morecyear at Michigan (not tgat tge NCAa has anything tovteacjbits brstvpkauer) but still Hawks may opt to pjay the long gamelan suckvatvthe bottom again.

I f they draft Carksdon...he may bevintge NHL next seadon I our lineup.. Again they coukd delay bro going him over but ifvtgey feel he can stay in the show there is no reason to keep him in Sweden...better to adjust to N.A. rinks and style of game..


So avkitvdeoends...sickest lineup or Some progress with youthvtalentbinfusions?

 

[CanadianHawks]

Reichel-Bedard/Fantili-Johnson
Kurashev-Domi-Raddyish
Wood-Dickinson-Bjork
Foegele-Blackwell-Wagner

Reese Johnson
Enwhistle

Graves Jones
X - Murphy
Jones-Zaitsev
Tinordi

Mrazek
Stauber/Soderblom

Hawks draft at 1/2
Take Foegele as cap dump from Oilers (get pick and send back Katchouk)
Resign Domi (3 years 4.75 per)
Sign Wood (4x4)
X is either a kid making the team or cap dump like Mike Reilly coming with picks from Bs
Graves signs 5 years 5 million per

*Toews retires, Kane to Buffalo

Likely just around cap floor

Its almost the exact roster I put lol

Compher instead of Domi
Added two cap dump trades.
put in vlasic instead of jones
Regula instead of Englund

Nothing of significance.

 

[EbonyRaptor]

IMO - we're still at least one more year away, if not a couple, before the objective is to sign or trade for players to build a new core group. I think the only players to be acquired are free agents on one or two year deals for the purpose of flipping them at the deadline - same as this year. We are at least a couple years away before the objective is to not draft in the top-10, if not the top-5.

The 2023/24 lineup should (1) meet the cap floor - barely, and (2) be bad enough to be in the conversation for top-5 pick - AND - get some of the young players some NHL experience, especially d-men.

Bolded = Horrendous

Miles Wood is f***ing awful and you want to give him 4 x 4!

Underlined = A far more expensive McCabe at longer term during rebuild

Also let some other team make mistake of giving Graves an expensive overpay.

Graves is a good player. Defence are always over paid in UFA. Good partner for Jones

Domi has been rumoured to be coming back next year. I’m not a huge fan by any means but that’s likely the type of money he’s looking at

Wood is the type of player the Hawks will be looking at. North South player with size and speed to burn

Your lineup signed JT Compher for 3 years at 4 and your saying someone signing Domi at 3 years 4.75 is horrendous. Dont you think thats crazy.

Domi has been in the system knows the players and coaches. He fits in. He also has 20 more points then Compher this year.

I like Compher too.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Giving anyone term this summer would be a mistake.
