A shaw type agitator is what this team needs badly
I think Powers was trying to find a Hawks player for a comp- he wasn't thinking league wide. I have no issues with people saying he can be a Shaw +, people forget that Shaw played a lot of top 6 minutes for us and as you said was one of the few agitators we had...I would rather here the comp of Bolland personally for a Hawks comp, but if you want a comp league wide, kid reminds me a lot of T.J Oshie...

Barratt has a real shot at making the team next year. Forward depth is absolute garbage and with Anisimov most likely gone, he’ll have the perfect opportunity.

Oshie is an awesome player so if we get that kind of result from a pick that was acquired by trading the rights to a UFA goalie thats now in the minors its a major home run for Kelley....again...

Oshie is a brick wall, not sure how people understand how solidly built that dude is...massively strong core and legs...Barratt has some filling out to get to that but he can be every bit the threat/agitator that Oshie is...likely minus the shootout madness lol..that Darling trade could turn out to be a franchise changer depending just how good Barratt can be up here..

Gotta wonder if the tank folks ever played a competitive sport in their life. If they did, even as a fan they should know how despicable wishing to lose is.

I have played a competitive sport. I don’t find it despeciable wanting the team to get a better player in the draft and not win meaningless games in a season going nowhere. I don’t actively root against them while they’re playing, but I’m not going to pretend I wouldn’t be ecstatic with the 1st pick in this year’s draft.

I don’t believe for a second you don’t understand the logic being employed here, so no reason to get up on your high horse. We’re all fans of the team here.

If the Hawks' players don't give a f*** about winning(sure seems that way), then why should I?
