Hard to believe people didn't like this trade .... lol
People love overvaluing their own players. People acted like Hagel was debrincat level

I was always questionable if he was really gonna fetch a 1st. People kept saying it need to be done before the league found out he was awful defensively... as if they didn't all know that.Hagel is what the Hawks needed to do with Gustafsson when he had 60 points in 2019. Meanwhile dumbasses here were going on about how it’s important to keep him now only for his production to fall off a cliff and to be traded for a late 3rd when he could have fetched a first.
Powers also talked about Kubalik fetching a first in 2021 too when now he couldn’t even get a return.
they shopped Gus but the offers were never there, hard to trade him for multiple 1sts if they were never on the table ...his value was probably more like Strome's, nice offensive production but no ability defensively whatsoever so teams don't want to fork up the high picks, Hagel is cost controlled on a great deal and can play anywhere in the lineup, big differenceHagel is what the Hawks needed to do with Gustafsson when he had 60 points in 2019.
