Hyman is the exact sort of player you can't overpay in this system. Middle of the road physical forward in his late 20s. Danger Will Robinson.
I don't think they are winning now ... my entire point is we need a couple playoff runs first so da boys learn what it takes to win in playoffs ... so why waste away on another asset like Freddy where we might be able to get a 2022 1st rounder for himThat seems a little weak for a team trying to win now.

So in the last 4 seasons where he's been up with the big club he's played 51, 71, 82 and 82 games... Aside from this past season missing a good amount of time, not sure how that really indicates his body has already started to break down. LolI'm not sure I do want him to stay, he's going to be 29, which by itself I don't care about. But his body has already started to break down he's already had one MAJOR knee injury

Injuries happen. By this logic, Tavares missed 19 games this year, his body is clearly breaking down too. Trade him!Well he missed 11 games last year and 19 this year that's 30 games combinef the last 2 years.
So you tell me how is that not a sign his body is breaking down given the style he plays?

Freddy is 0 for 8 when it counts for us ... I don't know if Campbell and/or Dell or even a red hot Woll can win us a series or two but we can't be any worse off than going 0 for 9 ... winners win losers lose that is life ... Fredy is gone after this season no matter what we can't afford what he wants and he likely needs a change of scenery anywho ... I'd rather get an asset for him then lose in playoffs and then forgo a pick too ... don't forget he cost us a late 1st rounder ... I hope we cut bait and get some value ... just look at what Khudobin did for Dallas ... no reason one of Campbell or Dell can't do sameHow do you do this though? I mean, unless Campbell/Dell makes him redundant, how do you trade away your goalie, that gives you that chance to win in the playoffs, and learn? I understand the thought process, but also consider that they need to win a round or two, to do that learning, and right now, Freddie gives them that best chance. You know quite a bit about Dell I would imagine? Can a Campbell/Dell pairing suffice?
I think Hyman is aware that, while he could probably make more money elsewhere as a free agent, he's wildly unlikely to find a better on-ice situation.
Here in Toronto he's practically guaranteed to play with 2 of our big 4, every single game. That's a very favorable spot to play.
I'm expecting a reasonable AAV, with player friendly term and movement clauses to compensate.
