Thank you Elon!
We will have some flexibility for once to finally add a potential big piece to this team. The Hawks have gotten off to a better start than most of us on here (minus myself and a few others of course) could have thought possible.
We have a number of young "guns" ready to step into roles next year as Boqvist, Mitchell, Beaudin, and Krys all could be ready for a jump on the blue line. Hillman, Snuggerud, and Dahlstrom all at the AHL level look decent as well..
A few forwards of interest would be Evan Barratt, Artur Kayumov, Jake Wise and Tim Soderlund...with an expected Victor Edjsell and Dylan Sikura as making their way to the NHL this season...
But what about a bigger fish?? We have the chance to add some real talent in what could be one of the best free agent classes in a long time- depending on if we move AA or not, we will have over $15+ mil in cap space ($21+ if we move him) next season (Schmaltz needs to be resigned, maybe a 3 x $4.5 for him), and a few minor names as well like Hayden, Sikura and Kahun...we have no idea what the cap will go up to next year, but the revenue jump and the Canadian dollar seem to be indicating another $3 mil plus could be in line.
Take a look and see:

there is a whole lot of talent in these lists - some might have resigned already not sure, and some likely will before next year...but take a look at the names and think who would look good in a Hawks uniform next season????
