Don't forget Forsling needs to be recalled. I can't see the Hawks wanting him in Rockford for too long.
- DarthKane


Part three involves including him in a trade package when Murphy is healthy. Easier to trade Forsberg when he doesn’t have to clear waivers!

Does part 3 involve Murphy becoming a better hockey player?

I thought you liked the Hjalmarsson-Murphy deal?

Forsling or Forsberg? Forsling could be traded, but I don't think that happens yet.

Truth be told, I like Murphy a lot and think there's a lot of potential there.

Obviously wish we still had Hammer.

Looks like Brandon Davidson and Andreas Martinsen will be healthy scratches tonight vs. Anaheim. #Blackhawks

Part one was Forsberg clearing waivers, so he could be part of a trade package, without having to be kept up by said trading partner. Totally agree don’t see Forsling being traded. Maybe Stan skips part two and doesn’t wait for a healthy return of Murphy if an opportunity arises.

I'm not sure why they recalled Johnson. He wasn't playing much in Chicago and they already have 13 forwards. maybe they plan on sitting Kunitz and Martinsen.

They just can't decide how to handle their Johnson.

Guys always expected too much from Forsberg. He was a backup and actually third string in Columbus because they couldn't wait to trade him and bring up another goalie. He will always be remembered as part of the second worst trade in Blackhawks history.
Before Murphy came to Chicago he had already played hundreds of games in Arizona. He was what he was going to be when he came here. How could folks possibly expect anything else? Another in a long line of trade wins for the other team.
The worry going forward is the more ABD scores the more likely mgt will trade him for cost certainty or some other lying bs.

Stanbo's hobby is collecting 3rd pairing Dmen. He has about 15 of them now.

- BetweenTheDots


Supposedly, he did request that schmaltz be his center or at least on his line...

I would try:

DeBrincat-Toews-Kahun
Saad-Kruger-Kane
Fortin-Anisimov-Schmaltz
Kunitz-Kampf-Hayden

- DarthKane


Kruger and Kane seem to have some chemistry this year. I was wondering if Q would consider having Kruger up on the second line.

And a big reason why it's imperative for SB not to max out the cap is to ensure there is cap room for the up and comers like ADB. Many of Bowman's moves, especially the dubious ones, have been cap related. Some of the other moves were done to try prolong the window of opportunity. With cap room and with no real chance of being a cup contender I'm hoping he can now focus on building the team while managing the cap.
