[Cashman]

Yeah, Dreger just issued retraction.

 

[ChiHawk21]

i cant even imagine what we would have had to give up. sorokin is an all world goalie

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

False alarm.

 

[ColdSteel2]

 

[Toews2Bickell]

could still go down....agent might've leaked it before the deal is done

 

[Blackhawks]

For Strome?

This guy has insane numbers

 

[ReLyT]

Dreger got my hopes real high. But he has since apologized and said there's no trade

**UPDATED NHL INFO** Source: Sorokin's people stalled trade for now between #Isles, #Blackhawks, seems he's still being difficult with contract demands. Russian teammates leaked info that Hawks had deal lined up today, should be interesting 3+ days

What type of contract can he ask for? He has to sign an elc correct?

ELC with bonuses. Shestorkin is a comp, has 2 years at 925K with 2.85M in performance bonuses. This would be similar to when the Hawks signed Panarin.

I can’t see bowman not agreeing to that...

Maybe it’s a guarantee to play in the NHL.

Yeah, Lou doesn’t seem to like giving bonuses or roster guarantees. Luckily, Bowman has a history of doing both. Or at least, when he has signed players like this, they typically get the roster spot. They could put an out clause in where he can go back to the KHL instead of Rockford. I believe Shestorkin has one too.

If there is smoke there is fire. I am sure they have discussed this, but I don’t hold out hope on it getting done.

Stanley's philosophy has been if the player hits their max bonuses then they played really well and helped the team...Lou seems like an idiot for fighting players on this. He wouldn't even give Marner all his bonuses when they drafted him and it apparently pissed off Marner a lot.

 

[x Tame Impala]

So is this not happening?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Maybe if Lou has fully lost his marbles

 

[puterwiz53]

I believe it is still in the works and could happen but may not happen.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Its a damn shame our G cupboards are so bare

Mike Smith drafted both Crawford and Anderson in his short stint as GM of Hawks ,, Stan in a decade has drafted nothing even mediocre at position at draft

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Speaking of crappy goalies drafted by Stanley ,, Whatever happened to Wouter Peeters? You know the guy Stanley drafted in 3rd round of 2016 draft?

Isn't he playing in some low caliber Euro Beer league at this point?

If only they kept mike smith as gm

Goalie cupboard should be bare. Draft skaters. Riding this train til I die.

Way to pick a side.
