Disappointed there wasn't anymore pto's. Alot of young unproven guys going to get handed spots. At least make them think they dont have it as easy and see how there character is by bringing in a couple of veterans to challenge for spots.

I think as LBR was saying that they have some vets that could start in Chicago, so bringing in more might be optional right now. Definitely want vets playing now and then moving them as needed when younger ones are ready, especially right now on the D.

Duchene would be a nice pickup for the right price. It would push Schmaltz. At $6MM/yr for Duchene, great test to see value for the contract.

Gives Q options and is a legit add to the “top six”

Dont need Smith. Too many bottom six guys as it is.

But Id rather see if Stone is available.....

Again with the Duchene nonsense.

Still can’t believe Ottawa traded their (likely lottery) 1st round pick to get Duchene who is only a marginal upgrade over Turris. What a clown show in Canada’s Capital!

When do the Hawks play SJ??

Again with the Duchene nonsense.

Maybe Stan could pull off a deal for Dutch and Boedker.

I'm sure there's a 'source' who can provide such information.

Don't forget Hanzal and Malkin!

We made it through the summer offseason guys and gals. Camp is finally starting and the first preseason game is next Tuesday. (6 PM Central vs CBJ)

This is the best time of year, but now my attention to my work and family will suffer.

Let's go Hawks!

Really want to see who the surprise will be in training camp this year. There is always someone.
