Around the League XXXIV: Offseason

[ChiHawks10]

So you want Bowman to pay significant value for a player who has no value...smart move there bud.

I get that you want Hoffman and we can disagree on that but wanting to trade value for a player with no value is just stupid. Why not just offer Hossa, a late pick, and a low prospect with little value for Hoffman? This trade is logical, yours is not.

IMO, if Boedker's salary was around 1m less, that's probably too much to pay for Hoffman with where his current value was. He had basically zero value.

What the hell?

Wake up Stanley

That is fine price to pay for Hoffman

Shark fans should not be happy IMO ,, I wouldn't be if Hawks did this

sharks fans should be very happy! they just cleared dead cap and got picks in return. They have space for a tavares run...

I can see that.

Please just stop even replying to him.... so f***ing annoying.

The Sharks dumped a contract and picked up a bunch of picks just touch Hoffman....Sharks fans should be happy with that return.

haha.

Yes, really. The gap is decent, just not the lottery pick that the Sens look to be giving up now after their team has fallen apart.

And LOL @ Hoffman being traded again.

And btw, what I meant when I said it wasn't peanuts is, I didn't expect Hoffman to return a solid NHL player, is all. His value was extremely low.

Dorian is not going to be happy with Wilson

This will be the last time they trade I bet.

Barnaby is a donkey but this was too funny.

Site is starting to glitch

They should turn off Avy's until after draft and FA

It helped in past

Fair enough. I still feel like it was a cap dump though.

Sounds like Ottawa wanted an NHL player in return, so although they could have got the package Florida gave up, they wanted a player, not picks.

Oh, it was definitely shedding salary on an overpaid player. Boedker having a $4m salary is high. He should be around 2.5-3m AAV, IMO.

HA HA

I can't blame Ottawa for keeping this years pick, what the hell are they supposed to do, give up a top 5 pick this year because there is a chance they might be a lotto winner next year?? Ottawa has to believe they can be better than they were this year, and they had enough talent to be better this year, they have to draft right and get Zadina at 4 and bring him right in..hopefully they can get a few guys on the cheap like a Derek Ryan and Sustr as FA's to try and get some veteran balance back in there, but this team shouldn't be a bottom feeder with the talent they have had. Goaltending is a big concern, but Anderson usually has bounce back seasons so I think he can be decent for them next year.

Didn't know a player could be traded twice in the same day. Thought it was a rule.

Man, what a mess over there in Ottawa. They're probably losing EK one way or the other too.

ahhhh, got confused there for a second

Pretty sure EK requested a trade already. Not sure if moving Hoffman is enough for him, he seems to want out of the organization.

Why are you posting a picture of the proud home of the Cleveland Browns aka FirstEnergy Stadium?

Seriously the Sens are trainwreck but on the ice they haven't reached Cleveland Browns level embarrassment

Off the ice they have reached Cincinnati Bengals levels of dysfunction though

 

[x Tame Impala]

I hope Bowman trades for him. Seriously. 8th overall + whatever other reasonable piece.

Maybe even a huge trade like

:

Karlsson

:

8th, Seabrook, 27th, Forsling/defensive prospect

Blood is in the water over there in Eastern Canada and somebody needs to take advantage of that situation. Hope it's Bowman.

They're at least as bad as Colorado has been the two years prior to this one. The dysfunction is insane.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Why would Seabrook want anything to do with the dumpster fire that is Sens

And no thanks on gutting future while bringing in a player Hawks cant afford given the mega salary that Karlsson will demand
