This is a bottom 4 team even if Bedard puts up 100 points. Hall and Brodie are just recognizable names at this point.
If he puts up 50+pts on that 2nd line, he may be worth the money. I don't see that happening though.We probably should be pumping up Kurashev to move at the deadline too. With a 54 point season on his resume and arbitration eligible next Summer, my guess is his agent starts the conversation at 6 million per if he sniffs 50 points again.
Silly me. All this time I thought this was a message board.Why are y'all making up scenarios?
He is, but Kurashev won't be commanding 5+mil unless he does put up 50+pts on his own line. That's not happening, and if it does, it means he improved big time and would be worth a short term 5+mil.and you're delusional in general, so i guess it evens out.
100% it's no longer one of the worst of the cap era, but still really crappyThis is a bottom 4 team even if Bedard puts up 100 points. Hall and Brodie are just recognizable names at this point.
i have no dog in this fight besides seeing musto insulted for one reason or another. if he ends up being wrong it's just bonus points.He is, but Kurashev won't be commanding 5+mil unless he does put up 50+pts on his own line. That's not happening, and if it does, it means he improved big time and would be worth a short term 5+mil.
In a world where Seth Jones makes 9.5, a 50 point Kurashev running his own line is worth 5.
So coming off a 25 point season an arbitrator hands Kurashev 2.25 per when the cap is 83.5 and he is going to take 4 (or leave it lol) with the cap at 92 million and a 56 point season on his resume....math is really hard.Why are y'all making up scenarios?
He's not getting overpaid lol.
He'll be offered 4M at most. Take it or leave it.
He doesn't have leverage.
And there won't be a late 1st round pick on the table for him.
They're not going to arbitration with KurashevSo coming off a 25 point season an arbitrator hands Kurashev 2.25 per when the cap is 83.5 and he is going to take 4 (or leave it lol) with the cap at 92 million and a 56 point season on his resume....math is really hard.
Somebody has to call it like it actually is.thank god we have you to do what the rest of us are too cowardly to do.
what he has done after being traded is irrelevant. Cat was a 40 goal scorer on a great contract at the time of trade and the hawks have nothing to show for it.you mean i should be pining after the guy who is paid more than 7 mil and hasn't scored 30 goals in two full seasons of play since he was traded?
so trading away a 40 goal scoring, top line player is ok when one of the, if not the main piece recieved has just been demoted to the AHL with a huge question mark that he ever makes the nhl again is ok now?on the basis of what? that the defenseman he was traded for hasn't broken out at the nhl level three years after he was drafted?
You shouldn't be.i'm not even particularly high on korch or moore,
its "broken clock territory" either way considering nobody here is a scout.but the latter hasn't even played an nhl game lmao. i don't understand how you can be even more arrogantly stupid than musto. even if you ended up being right about one or both of these, it wouldn't be because you actually know anything. it's broken clock territory.
I'm just old school. You start a rebuild from the net out, then defense. The Hawks got lucky with Bedard and should have started expediting the rebuild the second they drafted him. The whole "let the speed and compete broz cook in the minor leagues" trope ended the second you got a player who many were saying will be the best player in hockey in a couple years.that won't stop you from coming around here pretending to be the smartest guy in the room,
