I would ask Dallas about Seguin. Similar to the Hall trade. Pay them a 5th to take him on. He's making 9.85. Dallas needs to clear a lot of cap.
Seguin is old, but has been decent last two years. Worst case, he's a veteran 2C/RW who puts up 45 points. Best case, he plays RW with Bedard and helps the PP tremendously.
I would also see if they would move Mason Marchment as well, but I'm getting Tyler Bertuzzi 2.0 vibes.
I'm fine with that. My man idea was just getting him.He's got 2 years at 9.85M and he's coming off another major injury. I don't think the Hawks should give up anything for him, whether it's a 5th or not. They could take him on if Dallas wants to pay them to do it.

A Marchment type player is exactly what we need going forward . We have Savoie , Spellacy . Hopefully Kyle & Co. can add a few more with some sandpaper.I was thinking about Marchment + Dumba as well to clear cap for them.
Marchment would be really good for the young guys.
Eh I’d just use other sites if this site went under and I can try to have a conversation with a crack head in lower Wacker Dr if I find myself missing the engaging discussions that this site providesJust be glad they even exist.
I think he will for sure. Its not easy finding steady RD that arnt going to cost you anything.I don't know if Crevier is going to get signed. There's an awful lot of hit and miss there and you always need one physical D man to make sure nobody's taking liberties. Kaiser has looked good in attacking mode this West Coast trip.....I can see him getting a qualifying 2 year contract.

This is where I am at too. If you somehow can convince Marner to sign here, you take it and run. When you realize he ain't coming, I am not committing big money and 7 years to the next tier (Boesser, Eihlers, etc). Next season should be a super young group of D for the Hawks that wile that helps force feed their development in the NHL, it was almost certainly come with growing pains. Let the kids play, take your lumps, get a top 5 pick in the McKenna draft and NEXT Summer you are hopefully more attractive to UFA's and have fewer holes you are trying to fill.After giving this an absurd amount of thought, I've come to the conclusion that this isn't the off season to splurge on ufa's, rfa's or even make a big trade.
This roster has to improve, yes. But we are multiple Stars away from being a playoff team. What is the point of signing guys to long term contracts and huge deals only to finish 7th worst next year and be stuck there for awhile?
This franchise tried that once already. Before they were ready to win they traded for Havlat. He was a fine, skilled player. He was a 1st liner for us. The team was still filled with stop gaps like Jeff Hamilton, (lol remember him) Smolinski, Bondra and Arkhipov. The team still sucked. They didn't take the next step until the Stars came in (Toews and Kane)
The team has a lot of good, young players. Give them an elevated role next year along with signing a couple top 6 or middle 6 forwards and a decent D. Draft who you draft this year. Hopefully that player turns into a star as well. Finish between 4th and 6th worst next year, make the draft pick and then look for a star player(s) in free agency.
The ufa's are just so bad this year. Not too many of them make sense.
Think he will get the max lengthI like Ehlers, but not at a huge long term deal. 5x8m maybe? Or am I way short?
