Confirmed with Link: Hawks get Taylor Hall & Nick Foligno from BOS for Regula & Mitchell

[Darkstar]

I like it. Gives Bedard a decent linemate and we can flip him at the deadline if he haves a good season. Shame we have to give up a generational AHL dman, though. Oh well...

 

[Mrfenn92]

I have no idea how people couldn't at a minimum ok with this trade. Hall is a good option to play with Bedard.

People will bitch no matter what

Second nature at times I guess.

Not that it's a big deal, but Hall has some form of modified NTC. With his contract, I'm thinking Hall will be here at least 1.5 years.

It is currently a 16 team not trade list. It modifies on July 1st. His last 2 years he can only block 10 teams.

Who is not ok with this trade?

Musto is probably seeking out a meth lab now, but this is a solid trade with the D depth the org has.......Entwistle doesn't appear to do anything particularly well.....maybe we can steal some toughness from Vancouver for him....this is veterban skill & leadership with very manageable hits and terms.....and we gave up some pretty decent AHLers for them.....nicely done.

 

[jaysoneil]

I like both players and it doesn't hurt the Hawks rebuild. Now get Domi, please.

This year should be at least optimistic in terms of viewing enjoyment.

hopefully this puts to bed those stupid 25+25 projections for Bedards rookie season

The Pats were trash and he put up 71 goals.

You could give him any 2 HF members as linemates he's still putting up 30 goals.

Lets hope he can get some good defensemen. Drafting and holding on to them has not been the strong suit of this organization for a while.

 

[clydesdale line]

Davidson must know 2024 draft lottery will be very difficult to win and figured @Rooh alone probably won't get it done so he upped the anty and got Hall.... 4D chess.

 

[Sarava]

Great trade!

 

[bwana63]

imagine bitching about this trade

 

[Rooh]

It's a sign from the tank gods. Undeniable.

Just what you want in a Bedard winger, right? A one-dimensional, oft-injured, former sniper, who needs his linemates to do all the heavy lifting...

A RUSSIAN winger though, so obviously he would be perfect. lol

Will the Bruins qualify and sign both Mitchell and Regula? Will the fact that Mitchell has arb rights have any impact?

 

[Sinbad]

Mitchell and Regula? All f***ing day. I like Regula but he makes poor decisions and he's slow.

And soft.

Maybe Musto will follow Mitchell to the Bruins board like Boxcar went to the Oilers.

Yeah the last one we developed well was Forsling.

I’m a bit surprised Chicago couldn’t get a pick from a team that had to make a trade. Regardless, as long as Hall doesn’t fall off a cliff, Chicago gets a pick in 2025 when he’s traded to a contender- maybe back to Boston?

At least Hall is a better use of cap space than AA. I can’t believe that dude got a 2 year deal.

I think both Mitchell and Regula were amongst the long line of tweener defensemen that Chicago has. I’d guess Mitchell has a better chance at nhl success but he has got to improve his core strength bc I can’t recall an nhl defenseman being rag dolled as often as he does.
