Again.

For what?

All it says is player development. There's no other information available. That link was to show that he runs a hockey camp and is able to instruct players with their on and off ice skills.

He was a terrible hockey player.

Gretzky coached. How well did that go. Bad premise.

I know it's later then July

I doubt they offer sheet anyone

- homiedclown

Why would you doubt that, the bills gave an offer sheet to clay. They will explore all options in getting better.

- Carubba-Kaleta

what was the bills compensation for that?

apples and oranges


they will get better, not sure if that is the way they go

my guess is they go after a few cheaper priced players and end up trading with the club, like the nucks did when they got bernier from us

Tim Murray checked his pockets for (frank)s, he's been out for over a year.

Bickell will probably be moved. They could probably move Versteeg to clear up some room as well. They have plenty of options of guys other teams could want.

I'm sure they'd be willing to dump Bickell for a draft pick or two.

Bickell and Sharp will be moved for pennies on the dollar.

I wasn't saying I wanted him (or Versteeg for that matter). Just simply pointing out other guys the Hawks will probably at least try to move in the offseason to clear up some room.

I agree, if im not mistaken they did this before. They have their list of guys "who must be kept" and trade the guys not on that list. Versteeg is one I see being shipped off and Bickel is another good one. They have a lot of UFa's

Bowman has done a very good job of managing things there. He's in a bit tighter of a spot this time I think, but they definitely have some players with over-inflated salaries that could be of interest to some teams on the cheap.

The most important aspect of all of this for the Hawks is make sure they hit on the guys they draft to keep the cupboards stocked. So far, they've been able to do that.

Bickell yes, Sharp no. Sharp is on a decent contract for a contender. He makes sense in Washington.

Teams know Chicago is in cap hell.


No one is getting into a bidding war for those two.

2nd for Sharp

4th for Bickell

I think Sharp has a good chance of being traded, not to here but somewhere

Figure Hartman makes versteeg or Sharp expendable.
Terovainen makes Sharp expendable

So there is a nice chunk
