Sorry but I cannot accept a Gomez=Toews comparison. That’s just my opinion.
- Brandon Smillie


Gomez was a good two way C surrounded by lots of talent and put up average numbers and won a few cups and was handed a ridiculous contract he couldn't live up to, very similar!!

He played in Chicago before being taken 1st overall by Sarnia in the OHL. My bad y’all.

Not to me. Toews is a warrior and a heart and soul player.

Galchenyuk and a prospect or a couple of 2nd's should get Seguin to though. I mean granted Dallas believes Galchenyuk can actually play center.
- poisondhearts37

I dunno about even that...only 2 years separates them and Seguin's production in Dallas the last 5 years has way exceeded Galchenyuk.

In all honesty - best chip for a true C would have been Sergachev. (and that is a sincere comment)

For 10 million bucks you need a point producer at that position

Drouin and Pacioretty could be fantastic wingers for Toews. Even Gallagher

$21 Million for Toews and Price for the next 5 years seems like the right way to go, IMO.

You have to ask yourself: is Tavares or Stastny likely to sign in MTL.

After that you see why the Canadiens would consider a blockbuster for Toews or Seguin.

Never say never. Gretzky was traded....
- Brandon Smillie

Was decades ago in a non cap era where the players didn’t have no move clauses and players could be traded for tons of cash.

Pretty sure Bergevin touches himself thinking about Toews
- Fredo

(frank) Toews. We already have one overpaid player making north of 10 million. I'd be very interested in Seguin though. Unfortunately Bergevin probably had a hard on for the Hawks captain.

I'd trade you for 20$.

...

But I'd totally end up regretting it afterwards.

You know he costs $10.5 Million, is 30 years old and has ONE Point-Per-Game season in his career, right?

$10.5 cap hit for a 50+ pt, 2 way C until he’s 35 for a 5 years younger player who should out do that +++ with Kane and be resigned for roughly half.

Think about it

- Brandon Smillie

Uhh, Galchenyuk can't even maintain being a centre let alone +++ what Toews can do. The Hawks know what Toews value is as do the Habs, if they have any interest in him they will have to pay a pretty hefty price regardless of contract. The only thing that i would see being an issue in regard to the cap hit is the Hawks retaining salary. Personally I think getting a player like Toews would start with the 3rd overall and go up from there.

- Brandon Smillie


I'd pass on Stastny and if he swings and miss on Tavares you suggest he makes things worse by adding a bad contract? If he can't get Tavares, finish at the bottom again!! That's how you build, not by taking on other teams mistakes

Still should do .8 ppg pace for a while. Habs have wingers. Need a top 6 C and if Chicago is selling Toews I bet there’s more than just MTL talking to them

"Hawks offer Toews and #8th overall for Galchenyuk and Chicago’s own 2nd back"

I say no and tell you to never call me again.
