[FriendlyGhost92]

Holy shit that's awful lol.

 

[SEALBound]

Obviously not 4OV so tough to tell what the return might be?

Whooooooooooooooooowelp!

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

A fourth rounder and 45 oa. C’mon people! Quit playing.

 

[Artanis]

Why are the Hawks adding a 2nd? Wtf?

 

[Vegaspunk]

Man better perform at a Norris candidate level over the next few years or this could look rough for Chicago

 

[Cancuks]

They could have waited a year and signed him. Must be worried about Bedard wanting out.

 

[russ99]

Not when the Griffin Reinhart trade exists but, still, pretty pretty bad.

Hahaha omg.

 

[Leo2Cutter]

Why are the Hawks adding a 2nd? Wtf?

I think its about to get a little worse too lol

 

[Captain Controversy]

So is buff gonna trade the 4th overall for Larkin now ?

 

[UnSandvich]

Silly season

 

[Mcnofool6110]

Oilers trade Bowman for Davidson's brains in that Murphy trade at the deadline?

 

[RocketKing]

Sounds like McLeod is included?

 

[TommyDangles]

In the near future...?

I thought they'd already have a deal worked out

 

[NYI365]

William Eklund (and some prospect friends) went for the 9th overall today.

In no world do I value Bo Byram higher than William Eklund.

And he just went for the 4th overall+.

I'm floored.

 

[dgibb10]

And they don't even have an extension worked out yet??

Jesus Byrams gonna have them over a barrel

 

[ManhattaKnight]

I'm getting Gomez for Higgins and McDonagh vibes... What the hell are the Blackhawks doing?

 

[Diogenes92]

Could Mrtka be involved?

I thought Greenway was a negative asset...

 

[viper0220]

shows you how shitty teams think this draft is

Shows you why you need to hire a good GM.

 

[Dirty Dog]

Byram can play like a true 1D. He was one of the best players on the ice in the Sabres/Bruins series.

But he can also be inconsistent and bad. He was one of the worst players in the Sabres/Canadiens series

 

[Wlodarczyk]

Why didn't they go for Werenski if they were gonna ship 4oa..

 

[super6646]

Wowza. Thats too much imo

 

[5cotland]

Now we need Drury to quickly call Davidson and sell him Trocheck for Bedard++ because he has clearly had a stroke of some sort.

 

[TimeZone]

This is worse than M. Tkachuk for Huberdeau bad.

This trade absolutely ends any chance Chicago had at finishing their rebuild.

If I'm Bedard I'm asking for the first plane ticket out of town.

Huberdeau was coming off a 115 point season at that point, it aged horribly but at the time it wasn't seen as a bad move for the Flames at all generally speaking, in fact I believe the opposite was seen by most fans.

This is just .... atrocious on day 1.

 

[DGLeafy]

There’s Dmen at 4 that are already better than Byram. They don’t even need to develop.

 

[is the answer jesus]

Literally every team in the league has a Bowen Byram that is fighting to go from the 3rd pairing to the 2nd.

Lol. Let's not get stupid. This was a complete overpay by Chicago, but Byram is a good young hockey player.
