He was skating at the end of last year. For like the final 3 weeks I think, he was on the ice. I'm sure he'll be ready for camp unless he suffers a significant setback.

RIP Fugu
His time in Dallas ended with him being healthy scratched after game 3 vs Oilers because of his declining performance and struggles
Dallas made no effort to retain him
I said he is barely a #12F at this point and that idea of him as Hawks 2nd line RW is absurd
Nothing I said is unreasonable

He was signed to a 13th forward type of deal. I expect he'll likely play primarily 4th line with no powerplay time, with extended stays in the press box not unlikely if the team is relatively healthy. That being said he may fill in as a Nominal "2nd line RW" at even strength from time to time in a line blender way just because the Hawks are still very thin.

Foligno was a healthy scratch in the playoffs for the Bruins the previous year and he was like our 5th best player last year. Lol

Yea all of the youth will be in Rockford for the most part. Hell, our roster might get even older if Korchinski does indeed go down too. It'll likely just be Bedard, Reichel and Vlasic in the 23 and under club.

Almost positive Reichel is out of options. It's either NHL or you lose him to waivers.

After this year I think we are going to see a marked decrease in average roster age.

Not going to be waiving a soon to be 50 point player.
Nazar's time will come. He needs to light the AHL up first though.
Speaking of music to the ears.
NHL radio. Talking about the Capitals.
Saying they will continue to “try” to win until Ovi gets his goal record and then blow it up.
Speaking about them adding a high level C, Mike Johnson points out that when Dylan Strome is your #1 C you know you have to improve on that.
But seriously, I don’t see it as a competition between the 2.
Nazar could be helped and won’t be hurt by 1/2 a year or until the TDL in Rockford.
As for the other guy. He sticks as either a 2nd or 3rd liner or he’s done in Chicago. Unless he can find his inner Billy Gardner.

It's just pretty weird to be a bottom feeder with a roster the age it will be. All the other worst teams are on that list with players younger than us. I do imagine by the end of the year the rosters age is going to look much different, but still not the typical #2 overall drafting team to start the season lol.
why does KD refuse to take flyers on young players on open market? It seems like he is so stuck into a specific model he is blind to upside guys..examples- McGroarty, Askorov, Kaliyev...I would 100% use draft picks/prospects to aquire guys like this who actually fit into Long term rebuild plan over guys like Maroon, Athanasiou, Hall

Two of the 3 you mentioned are literally in our division which would raise the price most likely

New player numbers. KK is moving back to #14, the number he wore in Seattle, giving Lev #55. Reichel is switching numbers too (going with his number from Germany), which is interesting considering that JR is going into the Hall.

Mcgroarty and Askarov are premier assets that will be expensive to acquire. The current roster filler was cheap.

I think Levshunov and #55 is on borrowed time like Korchinski was. He wore #5 in college. Connor Murphy wears #5 now. As soon as he's gone, Levshunov is switching to #5.
Love Korchinski and Reichel switching numbers to what they want (at least with Korch it is. Reichel might be more cuz of Roenick and also cuz he beasted with #73 when he played for Germany).
