So lame. Tampa was the last place I wanted him to go to since they have the worst assets.

You have to keep in mind...

 

[Illinihockey]

A 28 year old Brandon Hagel could very likely mean he's filled out more, better at battles, better on the puck and in a prime where he can be a more dominant player on both sides of the ice...which he is already pretty good at!

Assuming he's at or near his prime at 23 is silly. A better version of him a few years down the road is exactly the kind of guy who wins cups that you want on your time even at a stout price tag.

Then the hawks can sign him then

Edit: Dammit Musto!

 

[Hawkster]

So we're at least getting their 2022 1st + 2023 1st

2023 & 2024.

 

[Drumman44]

HOLY F. Is this what it feels like to be on the winning side of a trade?

Oh my. Raddysh is back with DeBrincat and Strome. @Kevin Musto is about to go nuts.

There are risks, sure. But that's what happens when you make trades.

As long as the return is good enough, we can live with that risk; at least for now.

Matthew or Brady Katchouk?

 

[Fortyfives]

Is this good?

Or, you know, have him develop a few years of chemistry & leadership with a team around him doing just the same. How many players on the Hawks right now are anywhere near as consistent game to game as Hagel? Cat and....?? And that consistency is that he's consistently good.

Sweet, now we just need to get McDavid and the band's back together.

Chemistry with who? 37 year old Patrick Kane?

 

[CallMeShaft]

So how fast do yall think Tampa gonna be elite for? Any chance they suck by the time the 23-24 season rolls around???

 

[Fortyfives]

Man the hawks are going to awful next year after this trade deadline. It’s not like they good now but next year is going to be rough.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

The rebuild is on, nobody is untouchable, and I don’t mind the trade at all. 2023 is a deep draft too so that puck could be very valuable

 

[Illinihockey]

Can we trade Jones back and get our picks back?

 

[Mrfenn92]

Well now sell everyone

 

[Kevin Musto]

Yeah it's good.

Davidson successfully Hagel'd Tampa.

First of all, I wish Hagel the best of luck over there. Genuinely hope he wins the Cup.

But yeah, Chicago signed Hagel for nothing, then turned him into two 1st round picks, and two decent players. Are Raddysh and Katchouk as good as Hagel? No. But they're young wingers, with size, on ELCs. That's ultimately good for Chicago. These are players that can be useful in a rebuild. And I like that Davidson avoided the 2022 1st, and went for 2023 + 2024.

 

[Muffinalt]

Well at least it's two firsts and both of Raddysh and Katchouk.

Replenishes the forward prospect core a little, although we just got much slower.

Still hate that we traded him. People saying what a scoop we got him for free ok, but he's more likely a part of the core in 3 years than any of the assets we just got.

If we are going to truly trade everyone and everything then they better get on moving all the vet defense out.

Unfortunately it had to be done. I’m glad they’re blowing it up instead of flailing going nowhere.

Davidson got 2 1st round picks in that 2023 draft which is going to be a very good one. Well done. Our pick should be very high since we will likely suck even more next year (and hopefully CBJ doesn't win the lottery with our current pick) and a lower 1st from TB but will still get a very good prospect in a loaded draft. Giddy up.

I wonder if Hawks brass feel 2022 is a weak draft so they asked for 2023 and 2024 instead. I love it. Katchouk is pretty promising young player too. Let's see if Raddysh can rekindle the magic with his Erie teammates. I bet both DeBrincat and Strome are ecstatic right now.
