Confirmed with Link: Former Hawk Hinostroza Returns, Brad Morrison to FLA

[thesaadfather]

I actually really like this trade. Gives us some speed and some more options. He’s scored decently at the NHL level too.

 

[Idionym]

In all seriousness, Hino probably can be a below-average third liner on an expiring contract? Why does FLA do this lol

 

[Marotte Marauder]

In for Highmore?

How are people mad at this move?
Like the trade.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

Stanley getting fleeced again. Can't believe we gave up on Morrison so quickly smh

Brad Morrison is the player they got back for Maatta and Cam Morrison is the ND prospect? IDK how this is a fleece, Hino is depth for when they move Soda and/or Janmark...

Imagine feeling strongly about this trade.

I wish this forum was around for the Chelios trade....

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Who was it that loved Hino? Was it Bobby?

Si correcto

 

[HawksDub89]

Immediately one of the best skaters on the roster, but unfortunately he doesn’t have much of a scoring touch.

I don’t mind him though.

Kind of meh overall. Not mad but obviously not a huge impact type of trade.

I think people are mad that it’s more of the same unimaginative shit from our pro scouting department

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Annual ex-Hawk trade.

I understand. Just seems weird to me we traded for a bottom 6 nhl player even if it is a ex hawk for a minor leaguer

Imagine feeling strongly about this trade.

Especially since its coming at the expense of who, Matthew Highmore?

 

[CallMeShaft]

Love this move.

Me and, I wanna say Bobby, liked Hino more than any of you when he was here.

A really solid boost in our team speed.

 

[Clownish]

No idea if he'd be out of place on a power play line, but at least it would give an option for speed into the offensive zone. Welcome back!

 

[Kevin Musto]

Especially since its coming at the expense of who, Matthew Highmore?

Oh my god please. Hope Vinnie forces Highmore out of the lineup for good.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Last time Vinnie played with the Hawks, Cat was a rookie, and Murphy was playing his first season with the team.

 

[Muffinalt]

It really is funny lol. 1/year, easily.

Hino with Hagel could be fun. Although i dont see a spot for Hino next year.

 

[ClydeLee]

In all seriousness, Hino probably can be a below-average third liner on an expiring contract? Why does FLA do this lol

Slight cap saving right? A guy making 1 mil vs an AHL roster guy so it cuts a slight price drop of a 13/14th forward

And they're probably gonna be looking to add on D to fill in Ekblad

So what does it take to get Hartman now, Hagel-Hino-Hartman line!

This is also funny full-circle. I recall a select poster or more upset at Hino being traded but others clearly saying oh Kahun or others signed would easily replace him... now Kahun for Maata, Maata for Morrison, Morrison for Hino cycles and he replaces Kahun back on the roster spot.

 

[Rick C137]

Don’t like Vinny as a player or person but we gave up nothing for him and his contract expires at the end of the year so it’s whatever.

Unsuprising yet hilarious that some people are actually angry though

 

[clydesdale line]

Well.. at least @BobbyJet is happy. Hino might be the one undersized guy he likes.

If Hinostroza forces Highmore out of the lineup, this is a brilliant move. Much more upside offensively.
