Tough to gauge how steep of a price Chicago paid to dump the three years of Hossa to Arizona. Hinostroza is very good and has potential, and Oesterle had a good year. Swapping a 3rd for a 5th helps Arizona, and Entwhistle is a solid energy prospect.
Excluding the junk, looks like Hossa, Oesterle, Hinostroza and a 3rd for Entwhistle and a 5th. Hinostroza is the best player in the deal.
Hawks fans don't seem too happy about all this cap space their boys just gained. I wonder if Chayka drew a line with Hinostroza or settled for him.
What would a Ranger equivalent be, but factoring in a team's desperation to acquire a star like Karlsson?
Callahan, Cirelli, Dotchin and a 3rd for Nieves, Lakatos and a 5th? Tampa fans would be livid but it's Karlsson.
