Fair enough. I’d be down for any of them honestly.

Marron might be too expensive, but I like those three guys.

I don't mind overpaying for 3 years

The only ufa's with some grit that I'd be interested in are Roussel, Pateryn and Schaller. Schaller you can probably sign for like 1M or 1.5M max.

In Jim we trust

Who do you think he signs or tries to? You seem to be a Benning mind reader sometimes

I'm gonna say Nash and Beagle.

Beagle

I will say his two signings are Beagle Rieder

Beagle

Guessing he gets 3 years at around 2.5m

That is fine , we will have a lot of ELCs in the next few years

I like Rieder, not sure what happened to him this year, but his numbers were good the previous couple of seasons. Could be a good buy low.


I like Beagle too, but only if it's for 2 years. I'm guessing he gets 3 and that's a deal breaker for me since he's going to be 33 years old. With his style of play, he's going to be almost useless when he loses a step.

I really don't want Riley Nash but i think Benning wants him as his stopgap C on a secondary scoring line.

I don't mind Beagle or Nash at 3 years . Don't forget you can send them to Utica for third year or trade and keep salary. They are only here short term to let our prospects mature.

Just like I think this is Gagners last year

I really don't think Nash is that good, just my opinion of course. Beagle can play a role though.

I think Nash is Plan B

I think Rieder use to be a center for Oilers . I think Jim might revisit that

The expansion fee was not included in Hockey-Related Revenue, so that's not a factor. But Vegas's success definitely was. I wrote about this for Forbes last month:

Excellent read Carol, thank you for that.

Calvin DeHaan could be a worthwhile signing.

I could care less about 4th line grinders. Maybe Beagle if he's under 2m.

Sounds like #Hawks renewed efforts to move Marian Hossa’s contract in last few days. Hossa, 39, has three years remaining at $5.25 million in one of those back-diving deals and league proved his medical condition worthy of LTIR exception this season.

LTIR and only owed $3 million dollars.

If there was ever a time....... this is it.

ask for a 1st and make it happen you can toss steve mason in there too. take them both and add 2 more high picks for next year.

Markstrom Tanev and a 2nd/3rd for Reinhart?
- NorthNuck

no

Anisimov
- VANTEL

henri jokaharju would be better to ask for.

Doubt he’s available. They want to re-tool

Yeah exactly. I would personally want Barzal but I don't think he is available either.

Minny has been a team that mentioned Coyle and Hawks have said they will ask Anisimov for a 10 team list after July 1

We need a center so that is why I say Anisimov may be one of the best centers that may be available this summer.

Jeff Carter I have seen once as a name thrown around but I don't think he is.

Ya Pateryn would be worth a flyer. de Haan is no chump either. He can basically do what EG was supposed to do (defensive dman).
