Funny, exactly what I was thinking. Spare parts and animinosov, who is nothing special.
- Mentalorgasm5

Dano is not spare parts. And it sounds like they were about to get ass rapped if they didn't do something. They must have felt this was better than the picks they would get

Yea i agree. Chicago the way they are structured seems like they can slot in a new young guy or two and develop while they produce. Teravainen is gonna be nasty for them going down the line.

Friedman was told #Blackhawks were warned offer sheet was coming on Saad. Probably about six years, $39 million. Don't know who yet. SN 960

- Stripes77



My guess is it was coming from Columbus or Buffalo.

Wouldn't that be in the 2 1st's range?? Too much for a guy like Saad IMO

Doubt they were involved. team like columbus makes sense as they are built and expect to be in the playoffs.

Dano doesn't impress me much, gonna be a career 3rd liner.

Same was thought of Saad at one point.

He's going to be a very good 2nd line guy there.

I dont know much about him except he is young and has some big seasons in the KHL?

If buffalo could ever become what chicago is wow. Getting one cup is obviously the goal first and foremost, but they drafted and identified 4 guys that allow virtually the rest of the team to be interchangeable.

Hossa plays a major role in their success. Love watching him play and i also think he is massively underrated but when the time comes he will probably be interchangeable as well.

Hossa will be there for another 4 years, then have career ending surgery, and become the Pronger in some deal.

probably because he's 20, he definitely would have gotten shot sometime soon.





That's not the work of a career 3rd liner...

But the team did get hurt and he put up.

Their top 9 guys next year are probably

Toews
Kane
Hossa
Sharp
Dano
Teravainen
Anisimov
Bickell
Panarin


Re upping Richards and Saad was gonna be in the 8.5 range.

Dano
Anisimov
Panarin

a shade over 5 mil.

OK he put up good numbers let me pat him on the back and go watch him play in the minors and have a beer with him at the bar about the time he got 20 games in the league at 20

Bowman says Anisimov is a player he 'Hawks have been "chasing" for quite some time. "Close to completing" contract extension already.

CBJ had the pieces the Hawks wanted to finish this deal, doubt they have been chasing Larsson and Folgino

He's a good 3rd liner that can get you some goals.

Cheaper younger version of Vermette.

If Reinhart had done the same, would you be saying the same thing?

The hate for Dano is bordering on asinine


It's getting dangerously close to "Eichel is the 4th/5th best forward in the draft" territory.
