This is the more fun scenario for Hawks fans. This was a rumored deal I heard somewhere(I don't remember where though, but it was in some Hawks history book) that this trade was actually agreed upon but Bill Wirtz pulled the plug because he was Dollar Bill, and didn't want to have to pay Lindros eventually. But what if Bill Wirtz decided to open up the checkbook?
The ripple effect is huge, but in the near future:
Peter Forsberg and Ron Hextall stay in Philly
Mats Sundin probably stays in Quebec
Roy gets traded somewhere else other than Quebec/Colorado, because they have Belfour
Hasek stays in net for the Hawks, rather than getting traded to Buffalo
Late 90s ripples: Ed Belfour never goes to Dallas, Stars/Sabres 99 never happens. Also who's dominating the West in the mid-late 90s? Hawks, Wings or Colorado?
The Blackhawks have a 1-2 punch of Lindros-Roenick down the middle, with Norris level Chelios and Prime Hasek in net. How many Cups?
Eric Lindros doesn't have to play Scott Stevens all that much, because he has already left St. Louis by the time this trade happens so he never gets his brains scrambled. How many points does Lindros score in his career?
