Only on HF can the worst team in the league have their fans pretend Seth Jones isn't just as horrendous with a worse contract. This is like trading a left handed lemon for a more expensive right handed lemon.
Jones is paid 250k, and that's all that separates their contracts. Both are dreadful but one plays RHD and produces at the same rate without the likes of McDavid, Draisaitl, Hyman and etc.
Nobody is saying Jones is good. I don't think even the most bias Hawk fan is going to defend his contract. He's still better than Nurse by virtue of playing right and having essentially no one to work with. And from the little I've watched of the Hawks, Jones doesn't need a babysitter. At least not the way Nurse does.
This whole idea is moot anyway. Nurse has a full NMC until 2027. Like hell is he waiving that for Chicago.
