I think the key gripe somebody could have with the Doan situation was that he wasn't traded during the season, thus the Coyotes didn't get anything out of him. Granted there probably wasn't many takers on Doan, but hell a 7th for a pending UFA on a team that's missing the playoffs is something right?

Nobody was really pissed about it, people wanted him to go to a contender at that point, and then when nothing happened it made sense that nobody wanted him and chayka wasn't going to call and beg a team over it.

Maybe letting doan go now would be easier if he was a true UFA that the coyotes didn't have rights over, i dunno.

Also now that tippett is gone, not moving vrbata looks real bad

Dickish as it sounds, I don't disagree with the last answer he gave, trying to emulate teams' very specific brand of success can absolutely be a recipe for disaster.

The return is fine apparently, but Chicago moved the wrong defenseman.

That's not much to pay for a pretty good defenceman in Hjalmarsson, but why is it Phoenix picking him up? I guess they figure they can get more for him at the deadline next year?

Murphy is signed for 5 more years at $3.85M. This isn't even a cap saving move for Chicago. What?

A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.
The Hawks are smart as poo poo to bury this trade after the Bulls hosed up so spectacularly.

I suppose CHI is banking on Panarin being a product of Kane who can't replicate the results without him?

This is what happens when teams refuse to bail the Hawks out of bad contracts for players like Seabrook. Bedlam.

I know Saad is really good but what's the angle on trading Panarin for him? To me it seems like it's just swapping two really good wingers of comparable salary because...I dunno, sentimentality?

I'm hoping the rumour of Calgary being interested in Dumba or Bordin is true, less so Scandella although he's still an upgrade over Wideman
