Re: The NHL Thread
Damn, Hawks are very active this past week and a half. Today they shipped Brent Seabrook's contract to TB (so TB adds LTIR space since he is retired) and got Tyler Johnson in return. Assuming Toews is back it would give us three centers who average 20 goals or more a year (or are young and close to that mark) and over 50 points at least. Also snagged (on the cheap) Jake McCabe who should return from injury as the season begins and be a top 4 solid D-man (h(hopefully)and chip in offensively as well. Not a bad two weeks for the Hawks with their additions (assuming Fleury fulfills his contract and Toews is back along with Pius Suter and the Blackhawks suddenly look poised for a nice playoff run even in the central! Happy so far this offseason despite severely overpaying Seth Jones who is statistically on the decline and not worth just shy of 10 million bucks a year for 8 years but I will take it regardless since we have some guys coming off the books after this season plus some cap and LTIR space which hopefully give them room to resign Suter and Kampf!
