The only way you get rid of Smith is to take on some awful 1 yr contract/player like Manning

Hawks should simply waive him and free up the 900K to call up a kid to gain experience

Smith can stay in Rockford and if he doesn't want that then Hawks can suspend him

Marco Scandella, Matt Beleskey, Johan Franzen, Ron Hainsey, Trevor Daley, Sam Gagner...

Some garbage players that are on expiring deals. If any of these teams want to add an extra year of Smith to their books, I'd make the trade in a heartbeat and send the incoming player to Rockford.

Smith’s the kind of player that fits well on a team that is “rebuilding.”

Certainly do not want them to pay anything to trade him. He could fill a role on this team protecting the young guys and what not. Maybe he lucks into some goals and they can move him for a 7th in the offseason.
